Info | Wrigley is a fourth-generation North Dakota native, with roots in Burke County (Columbus, N.D.) where his dad's family farmed, and Walsh County (Lankin, N.D.) where his mom's family farmed and ran a small butcher shop. Wrigley was born in Bismarck and grew up in Fargo, where his family founded and continues to operate a mechanical contracting company, Wrigley Mechanical, Inc. He graduated from Fargo South High School in 1984, and the University of North Dakota in 1988 with honors in economics and a minor in philosophy.
Between his years in law school at American University in Washington, DC, Drew returned to North Dakota and worked alternately for Federal Judge Rodney Webb, the United States Attorney's Office, and the Solberg Law Firm. He graduated from law school in May 1991 and began a year-long judicial clerkship in Delaware.
Drew and his family returned home to Bismarck in 1998, after he served for five years as an assistant district attorney in Philadelphia, Penn. After the election of Governor John Hoeven and Lt. Gov. Jack Dalrymple in 2000, Drew served as Policy Advisor and Deputy Chief of Staff, where he was instrumental in helping to shape early policy for the administration.
In 2001, he was nominated by the President and confirmed by the United States Senate as North Dakota's 17th United States Attorney. He served in that role until 2009, when he became Vice President for Compliance, Audit and Ethics for Noridian Administrative Services, a North Dakota-founded Medicare/Medicaid private sector contractor in 22 states. Drew, his wife, Kathleen, and their three children currently live in Fargo.
