About Derek

Derek Christina
​Agency Owner/Broker
​My passion has always been to make people smile. Whether it be providing great service or making someone laugh, I always take pride in knowing that I was a positive highlight to someone's day. That is why I strive to do the best I can for the people I work with so at the end of the day, they appreciate my hard work and dedication. As a licensed insurance broker, mortgage professional and real estate professional, I strive to meet the individual needs of each of my clients on a personal level, while facilitating the most enjoyable hassle-free transaction possible. I devote 100% of my energy and enthusiasm to what is most important to my clients –offering them all the options available and providing them with the superior service they expect all while educating each one about multiple aspects of buying, financing, and insuring their dreams. 

My wife and I are originally from Kansas City, Missouri. We moved to Phoenix, AZ after we got married for job opportunities and to escape from the harsh winters that the Midwest is known for.  After a few years of basking in the Arizona sun, we decided to move to beautiful Raleigh, NC to start a family and to enjoy those stunning North Carolina beaches. Shortly after moving to Raleigh, we were blessed with a beautiful baby girl and shortly after a baby boy, whom now are the center of our crazy world (sorry dogs : ). 

I am also a DeVry University Graduate with a B.S. in Finance
