THIS IS MY STORY
I'm a marketing professional, artist, storyteller, and creative living in Kanagawa Japan. Every day I live out my teenage dream of residing in Japan. Since I moved here five years ago, at every step of my journey I have learned something new.
I love shaping stories into visually stunning experiences using photography, cinematography, and sonic waves.
As a tech geek, you can always catch me behind my computer with my trusty pair of headphones. I believe in the power of technology to deliver innovative, interactive, and entertaining relationships between businesses, creators, consumers, and people.
When not behind my keyboard or camera I'm behind the wheel, exploring Japan in my 180SX.

MUSIC & SOUND DESIGN
THIS IS MY SOUND
Music has been a large part of my life. Through playing guitar, singing, DJing and producing I get to explore how different sounds interact with each other and make us feel.
In my time making music, I've gained a deeper understanding of audio equipment. My experience using Digital Audio Workstations translated into mixing audio for video.

What I love about visual design skills is that they always translate over to different visual media.
I've learned how to be patient and persistent when pursuing improvement in the arts.
In an increasingly online world, I know that visual design skills can be used in a variety of ways.
Community Interaction
With experience using branded accounts on SNS I'm fully capable of using brand guidelines, acting professionally, and representing brand principles and ideals. In my own personal brand "LaidbackMarco" I have the opportunity to interact with my small following in a number of ways. There are times when I'm informative, but also moments when I'm allowed to be Laidback, fun, and easygoing. During Twitch Livestreams, I'm capable of remaining fun and lighthearted even in the most intense gaming sessions
ABOUT ME
Chasing Dreams Daily
Behind all the professional experience still lives that laidback young kid with a 240SX chasing his dream. In my teens I watched a show called Initial D that combined anime, computer graphics, dance music, and Japanese cars. Five years after watching that show I found myself living in Japan.
When I'm not working you can find me delving into my passions. My hobbies are gaming, music, anime, and cars. I hope to use my skills and influence to shake up the world and live an exciting life.
When you seek adventure life answers. I'm thankful for moments like meeting my favorite DJ(pictured to the right) and look forward to more of what life has to offer.
