Hello! I'm Derek. I'm new to mentorcruise - but not new to mentoring! ;)
I originally went to school for art, but since 2011 I've been designing and building things for the web. It sure was a rough road to learn all of those things. I ended up reverse engineering my experience into a 9-month boot-camp-like mentorship program at Perpetual Education. However, that track is all-in and from zero to hero. That's not the right fit for everyone. I'm here at mentorcruise to meet people at different stages of their journey who want to make a serious plan and get down to business. Is that you? Let's talk about it.
