Meet Jaclyn Rivera-Bowers – Jazz Singer

Jaclyn Rivera-Bowers grew up in San Antonio, TX and has always surrounded herself with music. She recently served as Alto Section Leader at St. Thomas Episcopal Church (2013-2023) and currently sings in Alegria, a women’s choir here in San Antonio under the direction of Jo Scurlock-Dillard, her former high school choir director. Jaclyn is also the choir director at Legacy of Educational Excellence High School and W.W. Jackson Middle School. She and her wonderful husband Jeff (a recovering bass trombone player) share a daughter named Willow, and a Basset Hound/Labrador mix named Lucy. Jaclyn loves being outdoors (when it’s not a million degrees outside!), going on hikes, ticking different National Parks off of her bucket list of visiting all 63 NPS Parks, practicing yoga, and supporting our San Antonio Fútbol Club.
