Marquise Clark

Marquise Clark was born and raised in Los Angeles, the fourth of ten children: seven boys and three girls. He says he has a unique personality behind his many layers and has a kind heart. He has always been energetic and loves helping others when he can. Marquise is a former youth offender who is currently enrolled in college.
His short-term goal is to get his associate degree in business before he goes home. He is in a bittersweet situation of being in Ironwood State Prison. The transformation of a gang member to a law-abiding citizen is in progress after it clicked that Marquise wanted a better life for himself. He knows education is his way out and is grateful for the opportunity.
In June, 2014, Mr. Clark spoke about his experiences during the TEDx event at Ironwood State Prison.
