Josh Marcus

Los Angeles,CA

Summary

Experienced actor and host with strong interpersonal skills. I am easy going and understand the importance of being a team player. Hard working and self motivated as I have been working for myself for years. Very self reliant having hiked and biked across countries in remote nature with nobody to support me. As a new father I am as determined as ever to work hard and support my family.
