How you write your name in Sanskrit depends on how you pronounce your name.
I am assuming that "D" in "DEREK" is pronounced like "De" of "Dentist".
"Re" is pronounced like "Re" of "Red".
If so, then your name in Sanskrit is written as follows: -

Hi, visharad!

Ah, good! Another person who knows about Sanskrit and also math and sciences! You have a certain time frame in which you can edit your answers. But, since you're so new, I'm not sure if you'll be able to do that yet. However, with any images, it's best to be posting them directly in a post for all to see rather than a link to them.

I do hope that you'll please take some time to post an introduction and provide a little bit of background information about yourself here. (https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=375)

Thanks!
