Kayla Rivera, is a Filipina-Romanian, Television and Musical Theater singer and actress who originally hails from Calgary, Canada.

She became a finalist of ABS-CBN’s singing competition Starpower, and also emerged as the winner of the MYX VJ Search later that year. She began her professional musical theatre career as Nina Rosario in In the Heights staged by Atlantis Theatrical under the direction of Bobby Garcia and Chari Arespacochaga in 2011 where she received her first ALIW Award Nomination for “Best Actress in a Musical”.
