A self acclaimed “Social Butterfly,” Ms. Evans-Crump created The Flywire- an email party network for Baltimore’s urban professionals, trendsetters and entrepreneurs in 2003.

The Flywire membership is now a massive, valuable email network of "young at heart" urbanites that enjoy socializing and being in tune with the hottest events around.

One year later in July 2005, The Flywire spread its wings and provided an online and printed magazine to showcase Baltimore and the Flywire's valuable network of trendsetters and was named as Best of Baltimore 2005 by the Baltimore City Paper for Best New Magazine.
