Markus Shepherd

Dr. Markus Shepherd is a scientist employed at BradLabs.
== History ==
Dr. Shepherd was born in Cortina d'Ampezzo, a ski resort in Northern Italy to British parents who happen to live at the resort and work as staff there. Shepherd was taught both English and Italian until his family decided to move back to the United Kingdom when he was 7. Every year since moving back, the family take month-long trips back to Cortina d'Ampezzo to partake in winter activities, namely skiing and mountain climbing.
Shepherd wanted to take up science at an early age, wanting to become a chemical engineer or an expert on biology, leading to his intense study from his early teen years up to his early adulthood.
This eventually lead to Shepherd's employment at BradLabs. While back in Northern Italy for a short break from laboratory work, he sparked up a conversation with a random individual who was also taking a break from his laboratory studies, and who also enjoyed skiing himself. This individual turned out to be Brad, the owner of BradLabs. What was fortunate was that Shepherd was just about finished working on what his laboratory was manufacturing, and was desperate to work on other projects, to which Bradley asked whether he should purchase the lab outright and incorporate the tools and techniques into his research into developing Gooby.
