Emmy® Nominated Director / Producer/ Screenwriter / Author After spending 15 years in New York directing and technical directing some of the most widely viewed programs on network and cable television; Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, Emeril Live, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, I followed my passion for history in 2005 and produced a series historical films including; Silent Wings, Lincoln and Lee, The Wereth Eleven and others. *Wereth has just been nominated for an Emmy® Award. I am the winner of more than 25 writing and directing awards and am one of only a handful of directors whose work has screened in the Congress of the United States. Silent Wings debuted on Capitol Hill on the day of its release in 2007 and became the catalyst for New York Congresswoman, Carolyn McCarthy's, House sponsored, Joint Resolution honoring America's WWII glider pilots. All my work has focused on finding and telling the untold "American story". And my focus now is on national politics, economics and history and I want to produce these stories now in a video journalist format.

Born in New York and raised in Charlotte, North Carolina. After 10 years of combat experience in the United States Army, I tried to find my fit back into society working in Corporate America. Diagnosed with a TBI and struggling with PTSD I realized that life was too short to not do what you love! I found myself buying a cheap camera to take photos of my new puppy and as it turned out, I was a pretty good photographer! Eventually upgrading to better equipment led me to bigger and better events and created a realization I could make a career out of this photography thing. While studying at Liberty University I capitalized on some incredible opportunities and I have not let off the gas since! From shooting for friends and local businesses to being a team photographer for Minor League Baseball and a contributing photographer for ICON Sportswire, I am always looking for a new and exciting event to capture! In only 1 year of shooting professionally I have covered and shot many events with names you may recognize; Charleston RiverDogs, Liberty University, MexTour, ACC Championship, The Army-Navy Game, The Myrtle Beach Bowl Game, GNCC Racing, The Charleston Invitational, SC Stingrays, Carolina Country Music Festival, Alabama Theater, The Carolina Cup, NASCAR and more!

Evelyn has always loved to perform. She started with children’s theatre, attended a performing arts high school, and studied voice and acting. Even as an art major in college, she also performed in the theatre. She just can’t stay away. To this day, she continues to sing and act, performing with multiple choirs, theatre groups, and singing professionally with chamber choruses and as a soloist. What she knows about acting, interpreting words and music, and creating a performance informs all her voiceovers. Each project represents a story to tell, an emotion to evoke, an idea to express. She has the foundation to present a great performance, and carries with her the hallmarks of true artistry. She applies her love of performance in other professional situations, too – as a presenter, moderator, teacher, and narrator in educational and business settings. Her intelligence, her ability to inhabit a character, and a voice ranging from “champagne to whiskey” can bring words and characters to life.

In December, 2020, I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, with B.A. Anthropology and B.A. Media Studies. I am primarily interested in ethnographic film and photo journalism. ​ The intersection of anthropology and digital content creation converge in a space dedicated to ethical film making with holistic, comprehensive methodology and intent. My intention is not to tell people's stories for them, but rather, be a vessel in helping people tell their own stories, because everyone has a voice. My time at UNC-Greensboro and The University of Cape Town, helped in the acquisition of the necessary videography, editing, and journalism skills required to be successful in the media industry
