Most recently, Evers has overseen many NMS accounts for K-12 schools, and he frequently travels throughout Alaska, supporting field managers. Evers has recently taken a larger role supporting NMS Airport Fleet Services, the First Americans Museum in Oklahoma, and Diné College in Arizona.

Evers is an American Culinary Federation certified executive chef. He has managed some of the finest kitchens in Anchorage and owned a catering company that supported movie productions and events like Arctic Man.
