Derek is a father, coach, adventure-seeker, and self-exploration enthusiast.

He arrived at coaching through his own journey of self-discovery and seeing the impact of being coached himself. On paper he was successful, but inside felt perpetually stuck and controlled by doubt, fear, and negativity.

By focusing on fundamentals and becoming more aware of his energy and strengths, he learned to rewire those negative thought patterns and reclaimed what makes him come alive.

Through his client work, Derek helps others rediscover their energy and build momentum to play the game they’re destined to win.

Derek spends most of his time with his two little girls and enjoys running outside with his hyperactive Australian Shepherd. He also writes a periodic newsletter “Scratching My Niches” on Substack, exploring his many interests, navigating our tech driven world, and what it means to live an authentic life.
