Drew graduated from Bemidji High School and from University of Wisconsin-Madison with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. He worked at Schwing America as an Engineering Manager. He took great pride in his work and was passionate about forming meaningful relationships and mentoring. Drew enjoyed golfing, playing softball, and the great outdoors. Above all else, he loved being a husband and father. He was the definition of super dad. There was no parenting feat he couldn’t tackle. His children were the light of his life. He was lucky enough to marry his best friend and soulmate and they loved each other perfectly. His big smile and vibrant personality will be missed by all who knew him.
