The interview lasted for about 40 minutes and the rest can be found on his blog that he just redesigned.  Derrick is 17 years old, therefore he is the youngest personal brand’er I know!

Info on Derrick:

“Born in 16 December 1990, in Singapore. I’m just an average guy, trying to forge his own path. I’m a huge believer in standing out, and being your own person – and never settling for anything less than the best.
