About
A first generation storyteller with a
singular voice.
Drew is the youngest of his single mother's three kids, raised in one of the oldest neighborhoods in Texas and shaped by his mother's Caribbean upbringing. Self reliant, ambitious, and observant, he built a world of characters from the people around him.
"Writing was his place of refuge and agency."
The escapism of growing up in an unkind city, the elders who raised him, and the culture he inherited became the engine for his stories. Each person singular. Each experience worth telling.
