Drew Sykes
Director of Content ProductionIgnite Social Media
Drew Sykes has more than a dozen years of social media marketing experience. He's currently the Director of Content Production at Ignite Social Media in Raleigh, NC, where he leads a team of marketing professionals working with brands of *all* industries to create scroll-stopping and strategic content for the world to see. Before landing at Ignite, Drew worked in higher education marketing at his alma mater, NC State, where he started as the university’s first-ever social media specialist and worked his way up to Director of Social Media. Drew’s mantra at Ignite is that he wants people to see the content they create and say, “Wow. [Insert brand name here] did that?” No matter where he goes, his goal is to move people with what he helps create.
Outside of work, he’s a husband, a dad of two boys, a doggy dad, a runner, and a massive sports and music fan. He calls himself “Clark Kent nice with a Superman heart,” and believes that the world would be a better place if more people lived like Ted Lasso.
