Derek is a father, certified ADHD coach, and breathwork facilitator. From competitive athlete to corporate ladder, he spent years chasing — and though successful on paper, he felt perpetually stuck, controlled by doubt and negativity. It wasn't until learning to pause, breathe, and tune into what truly mattered that he realized: true strength wasn't in achieving, but in becoming. Derek helps his clients by focusing on fundamentals and strengths and rewiring the negative thought patterns that hold us back. Drawing from his experience as a breathwork coach, he also teaches natural ways to restore balance in the nervous system so we can reclaim what makes us thrive. Today, combining these insights with evidence-based practices to guide others through their own transformation. Originally from Michigan, Derek now lives in the Hudson Valley, NY, spending free time with his two daughters and hyperactive Australian Shepherd.
