Louise was born on March 29, 1964 and was originally from Rutherford. She was a sales executive for Integrated Analytical Laboratories in Randolph, NJ. She earned a partial swimming scholarship to Seton Hall University, where she graduated with a bachelor's degree in biology.

Eva went on to become an amateur bodybuilder where she competed in the National Physique Competition. Later on, Eva decided that she wanted to live at the beach, so she purchased a 100-year old boarding house and turned it into a successful guest house called The King and I in Point Pleasant Beach.

Always looking for a new adventure, Eva decided to become a dog owner and got her first Boston terrier, Woofles, and then Peetie and Rocky Louise. She competed with Woofles in AKC Agility Trials and was a member of Jersey Agility Of Central Jersey and Bayshore Champion Dog Club.
