Aria is of Portuguese descent. She began as a popular stripper in the Boston area and was discovered by Jill Kelly and Nikki Tyler who gave her contacts and urged her to fly out to Los Angeles. Using aliases like Maria Silva, Marie Silva, and Keri Humble, she entered the adult industry in 2000 at age 25, appearing in over 400 films. Her various scenes, often showcased her fitness background, having competed in the NPC National Figure Championships in 2004, where she took second place to achieve professional status, per IMDb. Aria left the adult industry around 2009 to become a massage therapist in Los Angeles, citing personal losses, including her marriage to Jack Spade (1999–2004) and later to Lee Stone (2004, divorced), and a desire to reconnect with her family and Catholic faith, per IMDb. In a 2005 interview, she expressed poor feelings about her career, stating, “All the things I said in industry interviews about loving people watching me have sex and the adult business were lies." She also reflected, "I lost everything because of the business… I wanted my life back,” highlighting the personal toll of her career, per IMDb. Her remarks likely kept her from ever being nominated for the AVN Hall of Fame.
