I am committed to use my story, experiences and insights to inspire and support others feel their best and live their best lives.
What’s up! I’m Drew.
Growing up in Atlanta, GA, I was a dedicated athlete and fan of football, baseball and basketball. College was four years of partying, yet I somehow escaped with an Economics and Spanish degree and entered the world of real estate finance at a large, national bank. Then, at age 25, as I was struggling with the monotony of corporate office life, I was diagnosed with stage 2 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (blood cancer).
Following a smooth battle with cancer, I took a two-week vacation from the bank to visit friends backpacking through Colombia, South America. Those two weeks turned into what is now 5+ years of travel, adventure and self-discovery. My curious mind and intuition led me down a wellness path that has focused on meditation, yoga, plant-based nutrition, somatic experiencing (SE) trauma therapy, and now health coaching which brings it all together.
My unique life experience has taught me that there are no guarantees in life and that there is no better time to start prioritizing your health and happiness than right now. My philosophy is grounded in a holistic approach to well-being that focuses on the intelligence of the body and the uniqueness of each individual.
