A note from Drew -

“Of all of the things I have pursued professionally, financial coaching might be the thing I am the MOST excited about, as I have an EXTREME passion for helping people 1) get on a budget, 2) conquer their debts, 3) dream up a successful financial future, 4) learn how to side hustle, 5) save as much money as possible, and 6) retire in ways they never imagined.

I grew up in Columbus, OH, and relocated to Austin, TX in 2012. A graduate of the University of Georgia with a dual degree in Human Geography and Journalism, I have always been fascinated by people and curious about their stories, their dreams, their ambitions, their purpose.

I first found a love for coaching people in business and later in fitness. I landed a job as the COO for a small marketing firm in Austin, TX right out of college. It was a very hands-on position where I learned how to help a wide variety of businesses grow their revenue and audiences and establish a stronger brand in their various fields. I coached business owners on how to create better relationships within their industries and within the community with enormous success. My role was, more often than not, expanded to restructuring the internal workings of the companies to help them lower their bottom lines, increase their profits, and operate more efficiently.

One of my clients was a yoga studio, and I was hired on to expand the offerings of the studio. It was here that I quickly fell in love with all types of fitness - especially Pilates. I became certified as a group fitness instructor, Pilates teacher, Barre teacher and run coach, and left the marketing firm to dive into fitness full-time. When the studio eventually closed down, I started my own personal training business, and coaching people one-on-one became my biggest passion. I loved being a part of peoples’ transformations inside and out.

Throughout my journey as a young professional, I have mastered the art of the side hustle. A professional musician and songwriter, a pilates instructor and personal trainer, a nutrition coach and pre- and post-natal coach, a business-to-business development specialist and social media marketer, even a commercial actress. I have loved pursuing my passions as my livelihood. I started to teach people how to do what I was doing with their own passions. And through that, I learned that people had a LOT of questions about money and business and retirement and savings and taxes and more. I started to offer free budgeting seminars for my self-employed friends to teach them how to increase revenue, save for taxes, start self-employed retirement accounts, and get on a budget.

It was so rewarding to make such a huge difference in peoples’ lives just by sharing and teaching information that seemed so simple to me. A few years into my financial teaching journey, I was introduced to the methods of Dave Ramsey and became a huge fan of his processes and principles, as they so closely aligned with my own. And so I became certified as a Dave Ramsey Financial Master Coach.

I cannot wait to share everything I have learned with you and be a part of your exciting journey to financial freedom, peace and success.”
