I’m Stavros, a professional footballer born in Greece and raised in Rhode Island, USA. Over the past five seasons, I’ve made over 100 professional appearances, after being drafted by the New York Red Bulls in 2020. I’ve had the opportunity to play for teams like Charleston Battery, FC Haka in Finland’s top tier, Egaleo FC in Athens, and now I’m with One Knox SC in Knoxville.

I started Derma with my friends because we’ve always been passionate about helping athletes. Everyone is constantly dealing with soreness and looking for ways to gain an edge. Compression pants have been a game-changer for me, but I noticed they aren’t widely known or made to the specifications that athletes really need. With Derma, I want to create products that both professionals and non-professionals can trust, knowing they’re designed to meet the demands of elite athletes for both recovery and performance.
