About Me

Acting/Talent Experience:
Hello, my name is Derrick, but the public calls me Chef D. I graduated from The Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York in 2005. I currently have my own radio talk show in Houston, TX. I was an extra years ago on several films, Double Jeopardy, To Protect and Serve with Richard Krenna, and talking part in low budget film named 4 deep, but was edited out. I am a very marketable, no filter, unique, kind of Chef that's really not out there. Pick me, and I will bring the audience
A major event in my life was:
When I went to Sedona, AZ to a spiritual retreat to a real Native Indian named Indian Joe. He took me up into the mountains, doing his chant, had me hold on to two hope trees, then blew dust in my face. I went into a 15 second coma that felt like 8 hours. Saw visions of my pass and when I woke up, I cried and put the past behind me forever.
The accomplishment I am most proud of:
My biggest accomplishment is Food truck hopping, traveling with my daughter, and watching her talent grow. Another one will be when I was in Culinary Art school my wife left 4 months into school and I became homeless for 3 months while attending school. Washing your chef clothes at the homeless shelter can humble you really quick! Years after that, I graduated from the best Culinary art school in the country and my daughter was there to see it.
An embarrassing story about me was:
When I auditioned and got my first talking part in a low budget movie called 4 Deep, I was on cloud 9. I went to the premiere at AMC theaters and there I was, two short lines , but I did not care. The movie was so bad it skipped theaters and went straight to video. Inviting my entire family from so many states to watch the movie brought me great joy. Long story short, they edited me out and the embarrassment overwhelmed me to the point I quit acting.
My favorite Movie:
City of God
My favorite TV Show:
Breaking Bad
My best Physical Trait is:
smile
Topics off limit to me at a party are:
There are no topics off limits because I have a strong thick skin and for some odd reason, I have learned to let anything negative go out of one hear and come out the other. I take everyone at a party with a grain of salt.
Do I have tattoos or piercings:
Yes, I have two tatoos on my body. One on my chest with a cupid holding a banner with Derrick inside the banner. The other one is so embarrasing to even share because I was 16 and thought it might be cool. It's a gun busting out of playing cards with the name Sweet D on top. I know what you are thinking?
The weirdest thing about me is:
I have so many to choose from, but the weirdest thing about me is having to be two people. One is Chef D who everyone wants to see, eccentric, edgy, no filter, and Derrick Haggerty who is more reserved.
My friends would say my best qualities are:
My best qualities will be that just making my presence in a room, people flock around me. When I speak, people listen!
My friends would say my worst qualities are:
My worst qualities will be saying exactly what is on my mind. Not, in a rude way, but the truth and we all know that people hate hearing the truth. I love the truth about me, whether they are good or bad because at least then I know I am being true to myself.
The personality traits I most like about myself are:
The favorite personality trait will be that I can hang around anyone and feel comfortable. I'm one of those people who rather take a cruise alone just so I can meet new people without distractions from a traveling partner because you will have to entertain them.
The personality traits I like least about myself are:
I need to find the balance between work and personal. I wake up, think all day, go to bed, for my career. Hey, If I want to be retired in 7-8 more years, I have to work hard.
Miscellaneous Information:
I have pretty much said it all, but if you want to know more I have a facebook, twitter, instagram, pinterest, or youtube at onelovechefd. Thanks for taking the time to read this! Peace & Love Chef D
