Biography
Columbia Business School
A Superbowl champion, entrepreneur, and educator, Marques’ ability to survey the landscape and identify unique advantages have led to various opportunities over the years.
After a record breaking 10-year NFL career, Marques repurposed the same mindset and approach that fueled his sports success into business. He’s owned, partnered, invested in, and advised over 25 companies. Through success and failure he understands the rigors and challenges that face today’s athletes and entrepreneurs as they build brands and scale businesses.
In parallel, his passion for giving back to young athletes and students of color has led him down a path he didn’t anticipate as an educator. Still, he strives daily to make an impact, offering them access to a roadmap for success he wishes he had.
