After quickly realizing the stereotypical office job was not for him, Derek Gracely quit his job and started his own landscaping business nearly 20 years ago. Having roughly $1000 to his name, he didn't have the capital to help it grow overnight - Derek relied on grit and hard work to turn his business into a success. He has since sold his initial business, Capstone Landscape Management, and is now the 'Head Nerd' at Grass Nerds, a customizable fertilization and treatment company.
