Roderick was born and raised in North Vancouver, British Columbia.[1][2][3] He has an older brother, Stuart. Evan first became interested in performing arts when he saw a Rolling Stones concert at the age of 10, and he decided to pursue it as a teenager.[4]

Roderick attended Okanagan Hockey Academy in Penticton.[5] He began ice hockey in the Pacific Coast Bantam Hockey League, BC Hockey Major Midget League, and Canadian Sport School Hockey League. He went on to play in the British Columbia Hockey League: one season with the Westside Warriors, one with the Alberni Valley Bulldogs, and three with the Langley Rivermen. He also played a season each in the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League with the Penticton Lakers and in the Pacific Junior Hockey League with the North Delta Devils.[1][6] He acquired a division 1 scholarship to play for the University of Massachusetts Lowell River Hawks in the NCAA.

Roderick began working in commercials and short films from 2015.
