When Rivera got to college, however, she didn't major in music just rather, studied byplay judicature. Rivera went on to go as a real the three estates agent, although she unbroken a bridge player in music and helped her father run his record company.

Rivera made a few more than albums for Capitol/EMI (including Adios a Selena) in front transcription for Sony's Latin division in the late ‘90s.
