We’ve all been there, where what you learn in school doesn’t become relevant, or important to you until you start applying it to something you really enjoy, and that’s what happened with our next guest: Derick Biones from Project1. Being the curious person that he is, asking lots of questions is very natural for him; whether he’s getting to know someone, or just curious about a car build. This eventually led him down the path to where Project1 is today, a platform to dive into people and thei...
