About Derek
🎢Most people change careers 5-7 times during their working life.
🧭 I help professionals navigate those moments of uncertainty.
After years in strategy consulting, startups, and government, I realized I was spending energy climbing a ladder that wasn’t meant for me…
🪜Now, I focus on helping people rethink the ladder entirely.
🎯 I’ve worked with professionals pivoting industries, rebranding themselves, launching businesses, and simply figuring out what’s next.
What am I doing now?
1. 🌱 I offer 1:1 coaching to help professionals progress with clarity, confidence, and momentum
2. 🚀 I’m launching a new platform for people wanting to navigate their careers on their terms
