Evan Overton
Hailing from Langhorne, Pennsylvania, Evan developed a zest for outdoor adventure as a Cub Scout and Boy Scout. His middle school Spanish classes then blossomed into a love for languages and traveling, especially to Spanish-speaking regions. While at BU, Evan pursued an interdisciplinary dual-degree program and studied abroad in Madrid for a year, returning after graduation to work for the BU in Madrid study abroad program. He then spent six years as a certified Spanish and middle school math teacher in Philadelphia, and later worked as an estimator for a construction company. Since 2014, Evan has led programs in Madrid, Barcelona, Puerto Rico, Vermont, and Portugal. He currently heads up our scholarship initiatives and has directed programs in Portugal, Spain, France, and the U.S.
