COLUMBIA, MD, March 12, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Drew D. Engel, CEO, has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Mr. Engel has distinguished himself as the chief executive officer of One Day Roofing since 2023, where he has overseen a period of remarkable transformation and growth. Under his leadership, the company's revenue expanded from $5 million to $25 million, a testament to his strategic vision and operational expertise. His approach centers on authenticity and intentionality, with a strong emphasis on investing in team members through comprehensive training and recruitment. He regards these efforts as the foundation of any successful small business, fostering a positive culture that prioritizes both customer satisfaction and employee development.

A pivotal innovation during Mr. Engel's tenure has been the implementation of a call center model, replacing traditional door-to-door sales methods. Leveraging technology such as satellite imagery, he streamlined the sales process, enabling One Day Roofing to efficiently serve clients across 26 states without the logistical constraints of in-person visits. This approach not only improved customer experiences but also reinforced the company's commitment to quality, exemplified by its 50-year warranty on installations. In 2025, Mr. Engel guided the company through its acquisition by a private equity firm, after which he became a shareholder. The opening of the first out-of-state office in Dallas marked a significant milestone in the company's expansion beyond Maryland.

Mr. Engel takes particular pride in witnessing his team members' advancement into senior roles, delegating greater responsibility as sales representatives develop into leaders and vice presidents progress to executive positions. His management style is defined by engaged leadership; he remains closely involved with all aspects of operations and leads by example, never delegating tasks he cannot perform himself. This hands-on approach has provided him with valuable insight into recruiting, human resources, sales and operations, shaping what he considers his most significant professional asset: extensive experience.

Prior to joining One Day Roofing, Mr. Engel served as chief experience officer at NewDay USA from 2019 to 2023. He joined the organization in 2014 as a salesperson but quickly advanced to the C-suite through dedication and adaptability. During his tenure, NewDay USA grew from approximately 400 employees to 1,000. He also collaborated closely with vice presidents across multiple departments and played an instrumental role in scaling business operations using a call center approach—a strategy that later proved invaluable at One Day Roofing.

Mr. Engel's academic background includes a bachelor's degree in business administration and management from Bowie State University, earned in 2010, while also attending New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark, New Jersey, completed in 2007. As a college athlete who played Division I and Division II basketball at both institutions, he credits athletics for instilling discipline and resilience in him—qualities that have shaped his professional journey. Overall, he attributes his success to perseverance through adversity and adaptability when facing challenges, such as denied promotions or key employee departures. Drawing on lessons from sports and business alike, he maintains that an open mind and proactive problem-solving are essential for sustained achievement.

Beyond his corporate responsibilities, Mr. Engel is actively involved in civic initiatives, including support for food drives, participation in back-to-school giveaway programs and engagement with the Chase Your Dreams Initiative. These activities reflect his commitment to giving back to the community and supporting those in need.

In his personal life, Mr. Engel enjoys working out regularly at the gym, attending basketball games with his son and daughter, and spending quality time with his family. He is dedicated to raising three children alongside his wife, who is a registered nurse.

In the upcoming years, Mr. Engel envisions continued growth for One Day Roofing through the establishment of additional physical locations nationwide while maintaining a scalable business model that avoids storm-chasing practices. He recognizes talent recruitment as both a challenge and an opportunity for further expansion and is committed to leveraging technology and artificial intelligence–driven initiatives to enhance operations. Ultimately, he aims to cultivate future leaders within the organization who share his vision and values, ensuring ongoing success for both the company and its team members.
