Robert Riva wins Oxygen’s Love Games Series

June 23, 2011 - PRLog -- (West Palm Beach—Fl)--- Robert Riva, defeated 14 bachelors when he won the ‘game’  in Oxygen’s reality show ‘Bad Girls need Love too’.  The Season Finale was aired on June 13th, 2011.  Robert and Lea Beaulieu, star of Bad Girls-- Season --5 were the winners of the show.

Riva, the youngest candidate, was recruited weeks after graduating from University of Miami.  “It’s not like there was a high demand in the job market.  I had been working on a social media site and using my real estate license to assist fellow students with housing needs, when I was invited to be one of the contestants. I knew if I won, it would help me leverage my entrepreneurial ambitions,” said Riva.

Riva will launch his innovative social media website along with his partner Nathaniel Wish in July.  Riva holds a Bachelors in Business Administration from University of Miami and is an active licensed real estate associate in the State of Florida.

Though filming was completed by December 2010, Riva was not allowed to share results until the finale aired this month (June, 2011).  In the meantime, Robert volunteered as ‘guest bartender’ for various charities and offered to  ‘host interview’ at high profile events including the launch of Gracida Polo. “At the end of the day, my aspirations are to develop my business, but I’m always ready to support great causes.  I’m honored to be asked to partake and happy to help,” said Riva
