Micah I. Evans, 33°
Orient of Nebraska Development Director
I was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, but grew up in Omaha, Nebraska. I received my Bachelor’s Degree from Boston College in 1994 with a double-major in History and Political Science. I received my Masters of Science in Public Affairs from the University of Massachusetts at Boston in 2001. Continuing education is important to me, and I received a Certificate in Leadership and Management from Harvard Business School in 2023 and a Certificate in Change Management from Cornell University in 2024.
My wife and I moved back to Omaha in 2002, and we were married in October of that year. My wife is originally from Florence, South Carolina. She recently retired as Senior Director for Guest Experiences at Lauritzen Gardens.
In my spare time, I am an avid history reader, particularly on the Revolutionary War era. I collect antique maps from the 16th to the 19th century, and love biking on Nebraska and Iowa trails.
