About Derek
Derek planned on building a world-class entertainment studio since he was 5 years old, and his 20+ year career in gaming is a testament to this. From roots in the gaming community with LANFest, to shipping multi-billion-dollar AAA experiences at Xbox, he was driven by his unending passion and perseverance.
His day job is managing a top performing team of diverse skill sets at Seattle game studio CHRONICLER.
Teaching the next generation of game developers is Derek’s privilege and favorite personal project.
