Derek is still the amazed little boy who picked up his first deck of cards at age 8. Inspired by the true story his mother told him that he was electrocuted before he was born he wondered in that moment if he had super powers. He also realized that life was a precious gift and decided to make the most out of every last single moment of it. Derek has had five near death experiences which have served to “wake him up” to the wonder of life that surrounds us all.
