Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarc B is a product-focused growth leader and co-founder with nine years of experience shipping marketplaces and education products across North America and Asia. He blends analytical rigor and design sensibility to lead cross-functional teams that double conversion metrics and boost engagement—examples include a matching algorithm that achieved a 10% hire rate and a training platform that tripled graduation rates. Comfortable in fast-moving startup environments, Marc has launched partnerships with blue-chip brands (e.g., a Sotheby’s motors marketplace) and driven international e-commerce rollouts with notably low bounce rates. His background teaching in Beijing and working with fashion designers informs a human-centered approach: he designs solutions for varied technical literacy and values artful UX. Equally at home translating user research into A/B-tested growth tactics and coordinating multi-country engineering teams, he excels where business, tech, and design intersect. Based in Houston, Marc pairs international experience from eight cities with hands-on product craft to move ideas from concept to measurable growth.
