Marc Maye

Marc grew up in Compton, California and has seen many of his peers get involved in gangs and the street life. It was his support system that helped him realize that the fast route wasn’t the way to go. Marc stayed active in youth church and sport programs, for which he credits as the reason for not getting off track. Marc also recognizes his grandfather’s guidance as a deterrent. “Without his guidance, I really don’t know where I would be.”

Marc attended public schools in the Compton Unified School District from K to 12th grade. Marc gradated from California State University, Dominguez Hills, earning his bachelor's degree in kinesiology. He continued his education at Mount St. Mary’s College and received a master's degree in education and California teaching credentials. Marc now works at St. Lawrence of Brindisi School in Watts, CA where he serves as the assistant principal, athletic director, and master physical education teacher. He also serves as the coach for all of the school's athletic teams. Marc has a strong passion for what he does and that’s why he and Devan chose to start 4wrd Progress. They strive to give back to as many youth as possible.
