A Summa Cum Laude graduate of the University of Texas with degrees in Finance and International Business, Darrell spent his early career with Arthur Young (Ernst & Young) in London. Consulting with a career-coaching firm at the age of 24, he utilized the "Backdoor Job Search" method to meet with 7 CFOs of the top Hollywood entertainment studios and landed an international financial position with MGM/United Artists Pictures. Through these initial experiences, he developed an understanding of the corporate structure and what it takes to get in…and get ahead. Based in Los Angeles, he coaches clients in his Backdoor Job Search method and, as a recruiter, has placed professionals nationwide.  Microsoft, America Online, Hunt-Wesson, and American Express have all utilized Darrell's professional services.

A staunch advocate of what he calls "career partnership™," Darrell promotes a lifetime of teamwork between job seekers, career coaches and recruiters.
