About me
I Am Derrick Odafi, a 23 year old Creative from Dagenham, Essex. I am the Editor In Chief of my own creative magazine 'New Wave Magazine' and the Creative Director for an independent fashion publication, Cover Magazine.

I have also been a photographer for various projects such as look books and editorials as well as being a writer for stories on my Independent Magazine.
