• Personal Highlights: Derek’s first word was “disentanglement.” He has never learned to tie a shoelace, opting instead for Crocs and dive booties. But by age 5 he could tie a bowline while blindfolded, and by 10 he could fold a tarp all by himself, at which time he knew his destiny was Marine Debris. Currently he is working on identifying net material by smell (underwater), while pursuing a (unaccredited) degree in Snack Management.
