  • Description

    Hey Yall!

    My name is Derek! I am a free and loving spirit and I love to see new places and meet new people and work on strengthening ways to cultivate peace in my life and share this with others...

    I have over 15 years of experience in the hospitality and food service industry and have dedicated the past 5 years with a focus on nonprofit and humanitarian aid work. I have worked over 11 projects with All Hands and Hearts Disaster Relief Organization and more recently have been looking to help with small grassroots non profits specifically trying to work with children in areas with high poverty. My last project I helped open a soup Kitchen in Medellin Colombia and before that spent many months volunteering teaching English in Ecuador.

    I also have good understanding of basic construction and experience with community living and equal respect to all cultures. I love meeting people from all walks of life and sharing smiles and experiences!

    I think it's super important to have meaning and purpose in my work and life and i love to be around others who have a focused on trying to spread love in the world. I also really love the practice yoga, meditation, and many of the healing arts which has made a profound positive impact In my life. I have completed 2x 200 hour yoga teacher trainings and am always looking for ways to deepen and fortify the abundance of yoga practices in my life. I also have recently started a new small Nonprofit called Compassion Kitchens that helps provide support for community kitchens serving children in need in Colombia.

    I also love the Spanish language and have been lived in Colombia, Ecuador and Mexico the for over 3 years out the past 6. At this point my Spanish is at an intermediate-advanced level and i would really like to continue to learn and improve. I can help in anyway with translating if needed. I am happy to provide references and resume upon request.

    With Gratitude
    Derek
