Derek has been acting since he was 7 years old. He is originally from Massachusetts, the state where he graduated high school and college earning his associate's degree in broadcasting and telecommunications.

While in collage Derek developed Coolwaters Productions LLC and produced his first 3 independent films which include Rescue Me (shot for the Drug Free America charity) and Shorts (a film containing 3 mini stories covering slap stick comedy, horror and a super hero special effects story).

After graduating from college Derek made the big move to Hollywood, California, where he currently resides and is continuing to pursue his acting career. With years of frustration building (as it often does with actors) Derek decided to resurrect Coolwaters Productions LLC from his college years. Coolwaters is now producing many independent films standing behind the company's slogan; "Don't wait for Hollywood to make your film. Do it yourself"!

      Another writing partnership that sadly never got finished was with his client and friend, actress Margot Kidder. Margot was working directly with Derek to write a horror comedy film about her experiences at fan conventions. Derek plans to finish writing the script and will finalize it with Margot's original plans and thoughts but with his own creative twists.
