Short Bio

Hey! I am Drew McVey. I am 23 years old and I serve in the U.S. Coast Guard as active duty, am a model, & bodybuilder. I currently live in southern California. my family originates from Boston, Massachusetts.

In each day that we are alive. Can you tell us what are the three things you are grateful for?

1. I am grateful for this beautiful life that God allows me to experience and appreciate!

2. I am grateful for sunshine. Moving to southern California I’ve truly enjoyed it aside from the beautiful outdoor environment but for the bright sunshine that never fails to make me smile and reminds me that the light at the end of the tunnel on those dark days is always going to be there waiting for me, vibrantly shining!

3. I am grateful for community. Community as a content creator, in this digital age has been such a huge part of my adult life. As serving active duty in the military I have been station on both the East and West coasts of the U.S….with this, I have friends all over this beautiful country & without social media, phone numbers, and genuine relations, I would NOT have come as far as I’ve come in my professional development, and my character development.

Individuals I become blessed enough to have introduced into my life mean more than anything, and for that, I am grateful.

Favorite type of music?

Rap, Alternative, & EDM

Who would you switch lives with for one day if you could?

Ryan Reynolds

Name the biggest pet peeve you have. It can be anything and it’s no holds-barred.

Smacking food!

How do you psyche yourself up for the day ahead?

I pray then I full volume blast my playlist titled “Boss Energy”.

Go-to products in your bag that you can’t live without?

Earbuds (2 pair), Wallet, Phone, Chapstick, & Gum

How do you use Sundays to de-stress from work?

I wake up, go to church, go to the beach, and finish the day with the gym!

How would you describe yourself?

I describe myself as an individual with a strong personality, who carries traits of high energy, passion, discipline, sense of humor, creativity, honesty, vulnerability, and athleticism.

What is your biggest weakness and strength?

My weakness would be my own mind or crumbl cookies 🙂 My strength would be creativity and making people smile.

What’s your hidden and weird talent that no-one, not even your partner knows about? 

I can look into peoples souls when direct light hits my eyes hahaha!! I can also do a split 🙂

What is a trend that you wish to obliterate forever?

Wearing both stripes & plaid at the same time.
