Our Purpose:

As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), we bring the same discipline, resilience, and commitment to excellence that defined our military service to every project. Our leadership is grounded in over a decade of experience in logistics, supply chain management, and security operations, with combat deployments in Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) as a U.S. Marine, as well as disaster response efforts during Hurricane Harvey with the Air National Guard.

We are guided by a strong set of values:

Service First – placing mission success and client trust at the center of everything we do.

Integrity and Accountability – ensuring transparency and reliability in all operations.

Innovation and Sustainability – pursuing forward-thinking energy solutions that strengthen infrastructure while protecting the environment.

Veteran Empowerment – creating opportunities for fellow veterans and leveraging their unmatched skill sets in federal and commercial projects.

Derek proudly served in the United States Marine Corps, where he supported in deployments of Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF).

Prior to that, Derek worked as a consultant with Trans National Electric Power LLC, where he gained deep insights into the energy sector and government contracting. That experience, combined with his military and law enforcement background, provided the foundation for establishing his own enterprise focused on serving federal, state, and private clients.

Under Derek’s leadership, TNLEP Veteran Global Energy Solutions LLC is actively engaged in pursuing federal contracting opportunities with the SBA, APEX Accelerators, and SAM.gov, and is currently applying for key certifications including Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), 8(a) Business Development, and HUBZone programs.
