Personal Background
Derek was born in a small Missouri town, and he enjoyed the Midwestern lifestyle. When it came time to move on and choose where he was going to attend college, he used his golfing abilities to earn a scholarship to New Mexico State University, in Las Cruces New Mexico. There he honed his skills and found a passion for finance inside the classroom. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Finance and as a starting member on the Men’s golf team. Shortly after college, he turned professional in golf and pursued the dream. Golf took him all over the country, and he was fortunate enough to play on tremendous venues and meet even better people along the way. Derek was able to win a few small events, but ultimately realized that he wanted to pursue a career in finance.
Recently, Derek became engaged to his beautiful fiancé Lauren Iaquinta. He is excited to further their roots here in the Vancouver community.
