In this role he provides coaching and business training to entrepreneurs across the region\, and brings robust experience in both small business and non-profit management to the role. Marc grew up in Louisiana and came to Juneau as an Americorps volunteer in 1995. His heritage is Acadian French\, Croatian\, and English. In Alaska\, he’s worked in conservation\, local government\, and positive youth development\, where he helped grow Big Brothers Big Sisters in seven communities across Southeast Alaska. Along with his wife\, Jessica Paris\, Marc owned and operated a coffee and ice cream shop for the past nine years in Juneau\, where they participated in the Path to Prosperity competition during their first two years of operation. He credits P2P for anchoring their business in triple bottom line principles\, which were core to their success. Marc and Jessica recently sold their business to one of their longtime staff members\, someone committed to maintaining the company’s core values moving forward. \nSign up for Small Business coaching. \nFavorite thing about Southeast Alaska: Whenever I step out of the airport after a trip away\, I take a deep breath of Juneau’s intoxicatingly fresh air and know that I am home. The natural world here is amazing\, but what sets our region apart is the people and our deep and genuine hospitality. \n[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]
