About Annette Evans

Annette Evans is a competitive shooter, firearms instructor and writer who first became known in the shooting community through her blog and social media presence as “Beauty Behind the Blast.” A commercial attorney by profession, she began shooting in 2006 and moved into competitive pistol and multigun in 2010, going on to win ladies titles at regional USPSA and Steel Challenge championships. She co-owned Race Street Range, an indoor range that has since closed, and has served as a match director and official for both IDPA and USPSA.

Her focus today is practical self-defense education, especially for women. She founded On Her Own, a resource for women managing life without traditional support systems, and wrote The Dry Fire Primer, a guide to building handgun skill without live ammunition. She holds a Rangemaster instructor certification, trained in combatives with the ShivWorks Collective and Cecil Burch, apprenticed with Kathy Jackson of The Cornered Cat, and has written for Pew Pew Tactical, NRA Women, RECOIL and ConcealedCarry.com.
