Led and helped build a new global video studio from the ground up, through longform YouTube content, and ran the U.S.-based shows team from NYC.

“Marc was a former college athlete and he had this coach-approach to management. Marc saw what I was capable and pushed me to fullest potential based on my own expectations of myself. Some serious Jedi mind craft mixed with confidence building.

Marc always had a good idea, either in post or during production, to elevate a video just a little more to make it extra special.”
