The Full Story:

Marcus went to college on a full scholarship as a left-handed pitcher. He was so talented on the field that he left his university to attend Grayson County Junior College in preparation to be drafted for the major leagues. But fate got in the way. In 1997, Marcus tore his rotator cuff – and promptly ended his baseball career. That summer, in search of a new field, he started tinkering with computers. Quickly realizing that baseball was not his only God-given talent, he began work in the computer lab at his university while exploring every new creative technology he could find. His rare knowledge of both art applications and IT intricacies quickly formed a series of alliances with creative shops – which turned into a full-time gig repairing and maintaining their technology.

Today, Marcus still has many creative irons in the fire. In his spare time, he works as a digital film producer for a wide array of clients and serves as a creative director for his church’s youth ministry.
