About Derrick
Building a clearer path to capital for entrepreneurs.
Derrick Aryee is an entrepreneur, founder, and business strategist dedicated to helping business owners access the capital they need to grow.
Founder biography
Automotive finance experience. A technology-minded approach.
Before launching Vayda Capital, Derrick spent more than a decade in automotive sales and finance, helping thousands of customers navigate complex financing decisions and working closely with lenders.
That experience showed him a larger problem: many strong businesses struggled to find the right financing because traditional options could be confusing, slow, or difficult to access.
Derrick studied computer science at Penn State, an education that helped shape the systems-driven approach he now brings to financial technology, customer experience, and business funding.
He founded Vayda Capital to simplify the process and help entrepreneurs explore commercial funding solutions—including working capital, equipment financing, commercial real estate financing, business lines of credit, and other business-capital products—through a network of financing providers.
The vision
Capital, education, and technology in one connected experience.
Derrick believes access to capital should be transparent, educational, and centered on the needs of the business owner—not built around a one-size-fits-all offer.
His long-term vision is an ecosystem that combines financial technology, business education, and practical funding solutions so entrepreneurs can start, grow, and scale with greater confidence.
