Wealth Consultant
Derrick's career is a study in resilience. Graduating in Banking and Finance in 2008, just as the 2008 global financial crisis closed the doors of the banking industry, he took a bold leap into insurance — driven in part by an interviewer who told him he was “better suited for a back-end role than a client-facing one.” Seven years with a major life insurer and a business-development stint at an estate planning firm taught him that true financial planning goes beyond wealth: it is about helping families prepare for and navigate life's hardest moments. In 2017 he found his professional home on the Infinity platform, where independent advice and a client-first philosophy matched his values. Today, a husband and father to a spirited young daughter, Derrick is fuelled by a mission to secure freedom and stability for his family — and to help his clients do the same.
“Don't envy others. Don't live with regrets. Let the love for your family push you higher.”
