Gang Unit Detective, Secret Service, Office of Inspector General (Drew Snarey)

The Dream Vocation Podcast with Tony Bellagamba

In this episode we speak with Drew Snarey, a friend of mine who has built an amazing career across multiple law enforcement agencies. Drew started out as a local patrol policeman in Michigan and was eventually elevated to being a detective in a gang unit. Working in some of the most dangerous situations on the streets, Drew built a strong reputation for getting the job done, to the point that he was able to leverage his success and become a member of the Secret Service. Contrary to what I, and many people believe, the Secret Service does much more than protect our most important elected officials (which of course is extremely important). In his time at the Secret Service, Drew worked on financial crimes that involved gangs, counterfeiting, and even human trafficking. After years of service with the Secret Service, Drew pivoted to the Office of the Inspector General where he now focuses on crimes that involve narcotics, even helping chase down the cartels. And, in addition to all of this, Drew recently launched an online functional fitness clothing company called Front Line Gear and Outfitters. It’s a first responder-based company that sells gear and clothing for everyone, but gear and clothing that Drew and other first responders would themselves gladly wear for functional fitness and everyday life. You can check out the company at frontlinegearout.com.
