Hi, my name is Drew Zimmerman. I've been reporting in northern Illinois for almost three years, primarily in DeKalb and McHenry counties, prior to joining Patch. Before that, I was a statehouse reporter in Springfield as part of my Master's program.
When I'm not reporting, I enjoy performing stand-up comedy and defeating all of the competition at area bar trivia events single-handedly.
