The Maryland native was raised in a Christian home with her identical twin sister, Rená. Excelling in her leadership roles in her church in Maryland, Pastor Riva was elevated through the levels of ordination as a deacon, minister, and elder and eventually she was ordained a pastor.

Pastor Riva has a deep passion for needy and hurting people, out of which a mission for outreach and evangelism evolved. She is the C.E.O. and founder of Majestic Life Institute (MLI).  MLI was designed to enhance individuals by delivering quality resources: spiritual, psychological, educational, financial, and physiological.  While doing the work of the ministry through MLI, possibly her greatest challenge came when God called her to start a new work after surviving a devastating transition in her life.  With much prayer and counseling, Pastor Riva accepted the call and in September 2009, Majestic Life Ministries opened its doors as a local church.

Pastor Riva openly expresses her greatest joy in life is being a mother of love and excellence for her four children. She devotes most of her spare time to the special needs of her son and children like him born with cerebral palsy. In her quiet moments she enjoys reading, performing arts, history and spending quality time with her children.
