Her cover song ‘Mo­ments’ by One Direction has also been featured as ONE (1) of seven favourite songs on the One Direction website; and her cover song ‘Give Your Heart A Break’ was featured on the Much Music Coca Cola covers TV show early this year. Locally, Ria is also the 2012 Ridgemeadows Got Talent Youth Champion. A singer, songwriter, musician and ver­satile performer, Ria is eagerly looking forward to this new task she has been assigned with.
