About Derek Goodwin

My Story

I have been exploring the world with my camera since I was a kid. It taught me that we each have a unique way of seeing the world, and wanting to be seen in it.

I was a little shy when I was younger, and the camera gave me a way to meet people. I have developed some amazing friendships through this work, and it is one of the reasons I love it.

I have a lot of creative energy, and I try to put it all to good use. I am the host of the Warrior One Podcast, a yoga teacher, a vegan, and a musician.

One thing people donโ€™t usually guess when meeting me is that I am a veteran of the United States Marine Corps. Semper Fi!

I am mostly just passionate about helping to create a kinder and wiser world for future generations. I want to share my gifts, and help other people share their own.
