About Us
Meet Your Advocates
Hello, I’m Derek.
Following our passion for the Arts, Sustainable Living, and the Great Outdoors my wife, Bronwyn, and I relocated to Asheville in 2007 as newlyweds. Over the last decade we’ve lived in several amazing towns across Western North Carolina, but we ultimately found a slice of paradise just northwest of Greenville, SC.
In addition to being my best friend, Bronwyn is the lead vocalist of her band Jazzville, a composer, voice instructor, and published children’s author!
Our two energetic and loquacious children keep us hustling. My daughter and I share a passion for volleyball and boards games, whereas my son and I prefer to be on wheels, albeit mountain bike or rollerblades, when he’s not up in a tree.
At any given moment you may find us hunting for waterfalls, playing pickleball, or whipping up a family meal in the kitchen ala Chef Ramsay!

Hello, I’m Jimmy.
I am from Oconee, SC and my wife, Danielle, from Central Florida. We are proud to call Upstate SC our home for more than 20 years. We have been married for over 18 years and have 4 children. My two oldest are boys who practice Kajukenbo and my 2 youngest are girls that love everything that is about princesses and baby dolls. They range in age from 3 - 7.
We love doing things outdoors as a family and helping at our church and local community events. My wife is a full-time mom, home school teacher, and Holy Yoga teacher. You will normally find me at the local record store or a concert.

Hello, I’m Joseph.
I started my first IT company in 1993. My primary business for years was selling and installing Point Of Sale systems for restaurants and family owned stores. I have been in the IT industry ever since, doing everything from network installation, to wireless back-haul, to desktop support and finally, teaching high school computer repair and networking. Two years ago, after paying for my merchant services at 3.5%, I began looking for a way to save on that bill. I found Paybright and became an independent sales agent and ever since, I am determined to save businesses money by lowering their current rates and keeping them low!
I moved to the Spartanburg area to be near my 3 children and 7 grandchildren. I currently live on a couple of acres with 50 chickens, 2 geese, 2 dogs and 3 cats. I love spending time with my grandkids, and look forward to helping my children homeschool them and teach them about the love of Christ.
