Derrick is a father of three and studying to become an electrician at an Advanced Technology College. He is currently in his apprenticeship and has the goal of seeking a master's certification. He's invested in getting engaged in his local community and serving underrepresented youth, especially Black youth, to share about the electrical trade and the career opportunities available. While he is very focused on work, school, and internship, when he does have free time, he enjoys working out, playing football and reading.
