Ana Rivera, widely known as Ana R., is an international model, actress, and entrepreneur who established herself as a prominent figure in Hong Kong’s fashion industry. Born in Texas to a Korean mother and a Puerto Rican father, she began her modeling journey at the age of 13 after winning a talent contest in Orlando, Florida. Her career quickly took off, leading to international modeling opportunities in Canada and other countries and capitals worldwide.

Rivera moved to Hong Kong after opening a major runway show for Gucci. Her distinct look and strong professional presence rapidly made her one of the region’s most sought-after models, appearing in numerous campaigns for high-profile luxury brands, fashion magazines, and commercials over the decades.

Leveraging her extensive experience within the fashion industry, Rivera transitioned into talent management and business leadership by founding Model One, a top modeling agency based in Hong Kong. As the co-owner and director of Model One, she plays an active role in scouting, mentoring, and developing local and international models, helping shape the landscape of Asia's modeling sector.

In addition to her modeling and business endeavors, Rivera is married to Brad Garland and is a mother of two children, Maya and Ryan. Balancing the demands of managing an agency, public appearances, and family life, she continues to maintain Hong Kong as her permanent home base while remaining a key personality in the local entertainment and fashion scenes.
