Derek grew up along the Platte River and central plains of Nebraska. Here he spent a good deal of his free time chasing pheasants through the extensive CRP fields, falling in love with archery hunting deer, and learning to talk to turkeys. Many trips hunting along the Missouri River and the Loess hills of Missouri during the rifle season lead Derek to northwest Missouri. Here he graduated with a biology degree from Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville. After meeting his wonderful wife Jenna they settled down in Lee's Summit MO, and have two boys, 6 and 4, and a ball-of-fire 2 year old girl. "I have always had a strong connection to Missouri after all the rifle season openers spent at a cabin in the Hamburg Bend area in the northwest corner. Those days in the deer stand with my father, brothers, and friends, deeply engrained a passion for whitetails and deer hunting. And growing up in Grand Island Nebraska I was fortunate enough to be involved with wildlife and conservation programs when I was young, and develop an appreciation and respect for all wildlife ecosystems. I decided to join Mossy Oak Properties, because they are made up of a group of men and women with the same passion from the top of the organization to the bottom. The Mossy Oak brand has been a huge influencer in wildlife management, outdoor recreation, and now land sales. The first full set of camo I bought when I was learning to bowhunt was a Mossy Oak jacket and bibs!"
Derek with his servant centered demeanor is here to make your experience with Mossy Oak Properties a pleasure. Whether you make your living off the land or live your life on the land, give Derek a call.
