I have known Derek for many years, he is an incredible professional with high integrity and willingness to help clients achieve their goals. I would highly recommend Derek for any work you may need.

Wendy Holser Hijos

I have known Derek since the mid 2000's when he owned and operated multiple Quizno's restaurants. Once i got past his background as being a former professional athlete, i discovered his unique ability to understand and leverage business and business opportunities. He has and continues to give back to the community by chairing at local not-for-profits in the local community, and has mentored many people that I know and respect. If you are familiar with the statement, "patience is the big play," you will understand Derek's unique ability to strategize, and not make "knee jerk" reactions. His ability to read people, lead from the front and balance business and family are remarkable to me. I also had the privilege of being Derek's supervisor nearly ten years ago. I had been promoted to a sales management position, and was required to find my replacement. I knew Derek would be the perfect replacement as he is a natural born sales/service individual, and truly cares about the well-being of people and their businesses. This was important to me as I would have Derek maintain and retain my large book of business. Derek not only retained, but grew the book ten-fold. I am looking forward to Derek's continued success both professionally and personally. Much respect for this friend and former colleague of mine. Wendy Hijos

      I consult with commercial & industrial accounts in the procurement of electricity and other related resources. With electricity being one of a company's largest overhead costs, it is important to have help understanding how to reduce costs and put that savings towards growing your business. I help clients find those means by mitigating risk and identifying opportunities in the market to capture the greatest savings possible.
