Drew Joined the WCCB Charlotte team in August 2018, after a two-year tenure in Sacramento, California where he worked as a general assignment reporter for KOVR.  While in Sacramento, Drew covered everything from the state’s roll-out of legalized marijuana, wildfires and California’s housing crisis to the city’s bid for an MLS franchise.

A Northern Virginia native, Drew graduated from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.  While there, Drew was a member of the swim and water polo teams.

Drew is thrilled to be back on the East Coast closer to family and says Charlotte is a great mix of small-town feel in a big city.  He says being close to the mountains and beaches also makes the Queen City the perfect place to call home.
