Marcus's Story
Life
I was in the United State's Army right out of high school. I have two undergraduate degrees from The University of Texas at Austin. A B.S. in Biochemistry and a B.A. in Anthropology with a minor in Microbiology. I was a paid undergraduate researcher for a biochemist and was published in Nature. During college I was a competitive triathlete and completed the Ironman in 1999 in 11:46:45...long damn day.
I am no longer competing in triathlons, but still run, cycle, and weight train pretty much 7 days a week.
I went to law school from 2002-05 and now have my own office in downtown Chicago because I got tired of working for the man. ;-)
I got back into road racing (r...Expand for more
unning y'all) in 2008 after a 9 year retirement. I don't have olympic speed but I get around ok for an old dude.
And for those of you who really knew me in high school, yes I still play guitar and have great band stories from Austin, TX when I was in college. I also got into DJ'ing dance music and raves and clubs. In fact, I made a lot more money doing that compared to being in a band. I still do the DJ mix thing but at home these days and with software and MP3's as opposed to vinyl. I have an internet radio show that is broadcast worldwide and takes a lot of my time.
I have a daughter, Allison, from my first marriage who will be a freshman at Washington Fall 2008.
