In the fall of 2000, while working for Akamai Technologies in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Derek was introduced to the practice of yoga by a few of his sales colleagues who were heading out to a Bikram studio near Boston University. “Eat a light lunch” was the only thing he knew about what awaited him that afternoon, and while that first experience didn’t change him overnight, it became a door into a practice that has challenged and changed his perception of what the mind and the body can do and the impact yoga can make on lives.
