He explains, “Behavioral finance teaches us that people thrive when they feel secure.” At home, he shares this ethos with his children, passing along daily motivational quotes that reflect his commitment to personal growth, resilience, and curiosity—principles he embraces both at work and with his family. A Miami native, Marcos enjoys an active lifestyle—spending time in the sun with his wife, Shaefer, and their three children Carlos, Paxton, and Aleny, and their two dogs, Moglie and Oliver.
