Drew's artistic journey began in his childhood, where he immersed himself in drawing, painting, and storytelling, often involving his friends in performances that he recorded on a camcorder. Despite facing ridicule for being left-handed, he turned this into an advantage, fueled by encouragement from his mother, who worked two jobs to support him and his sister, Katie. She introduced him to community theater, where he performed in productions like "Bye Bye Birdie," "Oliver!," "The Sound of Music," and "Guys and Dolls," developing a strong appreciation for the theater's collaborative nature.

Summers spent with his father deepened their bond through a shared love of cinema, with frequent trips to the theater enriching Drew's understanding of storytelling.

He enrolled in a Vo-Tech program focusing on AutoCAD, which allowed him to gain financial independence during college, leading to a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts from Salisbury University.

After multiple attempts, he was accepted as an extra, which introduced him to the various facets of film production. This experience ignited a passion for acting, prompting him to enroll in online classes with "Actor's Arsenal."

As he participated in shows like "Outer Banks," "The Righteous Gemstones," "Zoey 102," and "Hightown," Drew learned the significance of professionalism and respect within the industry. Through these experiences, he solidified his aspirations in the performing arts, embodying the belief that"What makes kindness so wonderful is that it costs nothing."

is an American professional wrestler best known by his ring name Jay Briscoe and is currently signed to Ring of Honor (ROH) and also works for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). He is a record 11-time ROH World Tag Team Champion with his brother, Mark Briscoe, with whom he also has a reign as IWGP Tag Team Champion in NJPW, as well as being part of three Six-Man Tag Team Championship teams between ROH and NJPW. As a singles wrestler, Briscoe is also one of four wrestlers (alongside Austin Aries, Adam Cole, and Jay Lethal) to have twice held the ROH World Championship. Jay and Mark Briscoe made their debuts for Combat Zone Wrestling (CZW) at Delaware Invasion on January 20, 2001, being brought in to job as part of a three-on-one handicap match against Trent Acid. At the inaugural Best of the Best event, a show somewhat atypical of CZW in that it is a tournament spotlighting athletic junior heavyweight wrestling as opposed to violent hardcore matches, the two advanced past the first round in a three-way match with Nick Mondo where the stipulation was whoever took the fall would be eliminated. They were then matched against each other in the second round, with Jay winning and advancing further. This match was seen by fans as the best of the tournament, and seen in retrospect as having been responsible in large part for helping launch the brothers' careers, as they were new to the independent circuit and very young at the time.
