Derek understands that no amount of digital magic can tell the complete story. The craft of film-making takes a multitude of work and life experience to achieve. Derek has broken thru the impossible dream and now is working full time not only sharing his own stories, but also the stories of others. Writing short stories was his first creative outlet and now directing commercial and Narrative work is a natural extension of that work.
