Profile bio

About Derek Curtis

Thomas Edison once said that "Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work." Growing up, I spent my summers working on my grandfather's farm in southern Iowa. As a result, I'm very comfortable in overalls and I learned the value of hard work at a very early age.Suffice it to say I've missed very few opportunities in my life. My belief in taking any opportunity that presents itself has truly guided me throughout my career. It's taken me from a copy shop in Ventura, California to a classroom in Iowa City, from the largest Department in State of Arizona to the third largest Windows hosting company in the world. And it's gotten me to where I am now: the co-owner and Chief Operating Officer of SmarterTools. I enjoy the risks associated with opportunity - the fear of changing careers, the challenge of learning new skills. Some people think these things take bravery. I think they take curiosity and a willingness to grow. It's something I've always embraced, and something I hope I can instill in those around me, from co-workers to my children.

Listed skills include E Commerce, Strategy, Marketing Strategy, Management, and 36 others.

One day, a friend I'd made while attending DeVry mentioned her neighbor owned a web hosting company. She said if I was interested, she'd introduce me. As I'd worked on one end of the hosting business -- being a user of shared hosting and a hosting customer -- I figured it wouldn't hurt to learn the other side of things, so I said sure. Again.
