Dancing, horseback riding, snowboarding are just a few of her skills. However, she is known for her expertise in water stunts and safety. An avid lover of extreme sports, she thrives on physically exhilarating adventures, rarely turning down a challenge. Evelyn is also a wildlife fanatic and has dedicated much of her life to working with animals and aquatic life. Her love for animals started early in life having spent many summers on a 250-acre farm where she learned how to ride horses, care for farm animals and camp. She is an avid Potcake dog rescuer, advocate of conservation, has made several trips to the Caribbean on rescue missions, and travelled to South Africa to explore many game reserves.

Behind the camera, Evelyn is as a Producer and Director with vast experience documentary filmmaking, video production, marketing, and multimedia production. After having helped originate the story line concept she was contracted as a Producer and Creative Consultant on Beyonce’s 'Star Power' video game. Evelyn created the 'If the Earth Could Speak' song and music video which she co-wrote and co-produced for Childfund International. Extremely close to her heart are her award-winning animal rescue documentaries It’s a Potcake Life (2016) and For Sato’s Sake (2023).
