Eli Evankovich (born August 9, 1982) is a Republican former member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives.[2] He represented Pennsylvania's 54th district, which includes parts of Westmoreland and Armstrong counties.[3]

Evankovich was born and raised in Murrysville, Pennsylvania, and is a graduate of Franklin Regional High School and the University of Pittsburgh.

In 2010, Evankovich challenged and defeated 10-year incumbent John Pallone, winning 60% of the vote, while claiming that his victory was "...an indictment of the system, not of the person..."[4]

Following a motorcycle accident in 2016, Evankovich announced he would not run for re-election in 2018.[5] In June 2018 he announced his intentions to resign from the legislature.[6] He was CEO of Premier Automation of Monroeville, PA from August 2018 to September 2020.
