He began his hospitality career in 2006 as Executive Housekeeping Manager for the Marriott Midway Airport, moving up to Operations Manager within a year. He landed his first general manager position in 2012 at the Sleep Inn Midway Airport, followed by a general manager position at the Hampton Inn Midway Airport and the Residence Inn Oak Brook.

During his time at the Hilton Garden Inn Chicago North Shore, his involvement in sales helped generate a $300,000 increase in group revenue for 2019. At the Hampton Inn Midway Airport, his team produced guest service scores in the top 20 percent of the brand. Marco earned a BA in Business Management at the University of Sunderland, England, in 2004.
