A Veteran Navy SEAL, Marcus retired from active duty in 2013 after several tours at SEAL Teams 10 and 6.

Marcus’ story is featured in the Netflix documentary, In Waves and War, released in 2025.

Marcus started his career in finance at Merrill Lynch, later becoming a Vice President at Fortress Investment Group focused on Healthcare Innovation. He went on to co-found a boutique risk management consulting firm that eventually merged with a large government contractor.

Marcus attended Southern Illinois University playing quarterback for the SIU Salukis. He received his MBA from The University of Southern California Marshall Business School, in addition to a graduate degree in Global Leadership from The University of San Diego Knauss School of Business.
