Eva's roots run deep in Central Maine, where generations of her family have called home. Growing up with her two older brothers, Devin and Bradley, Eva enjoyed a bustling family life enriched by tight-knit bonds. Engaging in public school activities, from team sports to orchestrating fundraisers and participating in musical programs, Eva thrived in her vibrant community, emphasizing the importance of social connections.

During her undergraduate years, Eva dedicated herself to studying opera and refining her skills on the violin as a secondary instrument. However, her academic journey took a turn toward public and nonprofit administration, leading her to graduate with a degree aligned with her passion for community service. After completing a master's degree at the Muskie School, Eva ventured into the realm of higher education before transitioning to roles in economic development for the City of South Portland.

Currently, as a Planner for the City of Augusta and a part-time contributor to South Portland Economic Development, Eva remains committed to both her professional pursuits and her musical endeavors. Guided by her teacher and mentor, Dino Liva, from the Daponte String Quartet, Eva persistently refines her violin skills, engaging in local ensembles and occasionally hosting intimate recitals.

Looking toward the future, Eva envisions setting up a studio in the couple's designated "music room," where she plans to offer violin lessons to aspiring students. With Dylan's enthusiastic support, perhaps he'll even be her first eager student as she embarks on this new chapter of her musical journey.
