Eva Loera grew up in Chihuahua, México and began participating in theatre at the age of nine, when she played the role of Doña Josefa Ortiz de Domínguez, a hero insurgent and supporter of the Independence of México from Spain, in a skit presented to students and their families at an official event in her elementary school. This formative experience has Eva being a lifelong supporter of the performing arts.
In the early nineties, Eva worked at the U.S. American Consulate General in Ciudad Juárez, México, assisting the treasurer with a variety of finance activities, and later serving as primary technical contact to resolve IT issues. After shifting full time into Information Technology, Eva eventually received the Franklyn Award and medal from the U.S. Department of State, for her ingenuity and resourcefulness to provide the consulate with an elevated level of access to automated information resources.

Wearing a variety of hats, she kept the finances and served as a business analyst for commercial customers for over 15 years. Eva currently lives in Juneau Alaska, where she relocated with her husband Juan since October 2022.
