Ev Wright
Director and CEO, Wright Academics
Wright Academics is truly a dream come true for Ev Wright. Built on the strong foundation of Bowman’s Educational Services, which supported families in Columbia, MD, for over 35 years, Wright Academics carries forward that legacy of care and commitment. With more than 30 years of experience as an educator, Ev has dedicated her life to helping kids and families navigate the ups and downs of school. She pours her heart and soul into ensuring that students and parents feel understood, supported, and — most of all — helped.
Ev’s passion for teaching and learning is backed by years of training and education. She is trained in Executive Function Coaching, Orton-Gillingham, and Visualizing and Verbalizing through Lindamood-Bell. She earned her B.S. in Elementary and Special Education from the University of Delaware and her Master of Education, with certification as a Reading Specialist, from Goucher University.
Outside of work, Ev’s greatest joy is her family. She has been married to her best friend, Chris, for 36 years, and together they’ve raised three daughters and now enjoy a growing family. Ev splits her time between Amelia Island, Florida, and Towson, Maryland, where she treasures moments with loved ones, long bike rides, hikes, travel, and curling up with a good book. Her two Golden Retrievers, Gus and Chloe, are always by her side—especially on the long walks she loves so much.
