A native of Cranston, Miss Rhode Island USA 2015 Anea Garcia represented Rhode Island at the Miss USA 2015 pageant in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Like many Rhode Island titleholders before her, Anea was a graduate of St Mary Academy–Bay View. During her reign she was a sophomore at Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island on a full tuition grant through the International Leadership Award. Anea went on to win the Miss Grand International title and now works as a pageant runway coach.
Miss Rhode Island USA 2015 Anea Garcia was adopted by her grandmother, who has instilled in her the ideals of perseverance, principles, and values. Like her predecessors Christina Palavra, Gabi Maggiacomo, Olivia Culpo & Danielle Lacourse, Anea attended St Mary’s Academy-Bay View. Anea has been fortunate to attend private schooling since the 6th grade, which is where she received Catholic education which helped her stay true to her morals. Throughout her high school years, Anea worked and participated in her community while remaining focused academically. Now Anea is a second semester sophomore at Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island on a full tuition grant through the International Leadership Award and is pursuing a double major in Legal Studies and Philosophy. Anea wishes to become a criminal attorney in the future.
