// About Me
DERRIUS

I'm Derrius Ivy — a Kansas City-based creative entrepreneur, e-commerce operator, and digital media specialist. I founded DXD LLC in 2018 and have been building it into a multi-channel home decor brand ever since.

My work lives at the intersection of design and business. Whether I'm creating a western-themed canvas print, optimizing an Amazon listing, managing a photography set, or producing a TikTok campaign — I own every part of the process.

I hold a B.A. in Sociology and Journalism from Park University — which shaped how I think about people, stories, and communication, directly informing my copywriting, content creation, and customer-first approach to e-commerce.

I've built everything from the ground up — from multi-channel storefronts to brand identities to content pipelines. I'm now looking to bring that entrepreneurial energy to the right team.
