Hello, my name is Derrick Colbert; I'm a certified business management professional and a strategic leader at KRA Corporation, a national leader in career and business services and program innovation. I have 20 years of experience in the business development, workforce development, and community economic development sectors. Reading Grapevine's mission statement, I discovered that it aligns with my community's economic growth and empowerment values. In addition, I like the network of professionals the organization allows me to network with.
