Owner/Instructor
Derek Dechert
Derek started Indy Ski School back in 2003 when he moved to Geist Reservoir from LA. He grew up waterskiing with his family on Lake Monroe and those memories stirred a passion to teach others the sport. He is blessed to create the time each summer to run Indy Ski School. When he is not skiing Derek works locally in the entertainment industry as a UNION rigger and electrician for IATSE 30. He also travels to multiple cities every year to work on large live events such as The Super Bowl, The World Series, political debates, and the DNC. He has been married to Pam Dechert since 2005. Their son Brodin is a Sophomore at LNHS. They have 2 dogs, Pixie and Wolfgang.
