Background

About Derek Lew

My goal is to connect with creative, entrepreneurial, and service minded individuals to build a diverse community so we may share ideas and information, learn from one another, grow, and succeed together! I am curious about the world and its people. I enjoy educating and seeing the proverbial light bulb go on; however, I prefer to listen and learn from the experiences of others. Humble, introspective, thoughtful, and non-judgmental, I consciously seek self-improvement and hope to make the world a more tolerant and considerate place. I appreciate art, architecture, and design, however my wanna-be art career ended once I stopped drawing on buses and trains. Who knew Hip-Hop would go mainstream and graffiti artists would collaborate with Fortune 500 companies? I enjoy reading a variety of topics ranging from bitcoin to the autobiography of Gordon Parks to the psychological process of change. I also enjoy being outdoors whether it's biking around the Marin Headlands, skateboarding around Kaka’ako, hiking in Peru, snowboarding in Tahoe, or looking for my golf ball in the bushes. If I've sent you a connection request and you're still reading this but are suspicious or don’t want to build, please reject my connection request and click ignore.
