About Derek Gorthy:

Derek started his first business at the age of 15 after teaching himself how to repair Xbox 360 consoles and smartphones. Since then, he has started multiple companies that range from affiliate marketing sites to algorithmic stock trading.

After college, Derek started his career in consulting -- working in the tech, finance, energy, and health industries. He found his niche in understanding difficult concepts and complex systems, then distilling the value of those concepts and systems into a form that anyone could understand.

Derek is currently working on his latest company, Enshrine. Enshrine is a Web3 community engagement platform focused on giving content creators the ability to build unique, cross-platform experiences for their fans. Derek is passionate about the company's mission because he believes content creators should own their financial relationships with their fans, not large tech platforms.
