Hailing from Tacoma, Washington, Evan entered into the solar industry in 2013 through CNM’s Solar Center of Excellence. His background in history and political science led him to conclude that, with continually rising oil prices and increasing water scarcity, harvesting the sun’s energy was a smart career choice.

Evan previously worked in Detroit as a journalist; Ojai, CA as a musician; and Santa Fe as a solar thermal and radiant heating technician.

Outside of work, Evan is an amateur cook, musician, writer, and trapeze artist. He spends much of his free time volunteering for various social justice causes and takes great pleasure teaching any subject to anyone willing to learn.
