Marc grew up in San Diego and as a youngster was into skateboarding, punk rock and mountain biking.  Little did he know that a trip to Sedona with his grandparents would introduce him to his offroading passion.  They took a "Pink Jeep" tour through the beautiful red rocks and he was hooked!  In his early twenties he moved to Angeles Oaks in the San Bernardino Mountains where he bought his first 4 wheel drive, a 1984  Nissan King Cab pickup.   A few years later he moved to Phoenix where he enjoyed going offroad in his 1988 Pathfinder.
 
After a short break from having a 4x4, and a move back to Southern California,  Marc purchased his 1995 4Runner in 2002. Over the past  5 years he has put on many miles offroad and continues to modify his 4Runner to withstand the harsh Southern California Desert. Last year after some suspension issues he cut the IFS off and completed an axle swap.
 
Marc currently resides in San Diego with his lovely wife, 3 year old daughter and 9 month old son.
