Marc was born in the Netherlands with two French parents and grew up in the city of The Hague.

Marc has been playing Othello since 2005 where he discovered the game on the website flyordie.com. For many years Marc was a casual online player and then in 2014, when he moved to Paris, he began participating in real life tournaments with the French Othello Federation. He started with a level many were surprised by and has since remained a mid-high level player in the French tournaments.

Marc then moved in 2019 to the Netherlands and since been playing actively in both the Dutch and French federation, where he remains as a player which gets good results but cannot quite break through to the top level of players. Despite that, he has managed to surprise in a few tournaments, most notably the French Championship in December 2022 where he got second place which enabled him to qualify for his first ever World Othello Championship in 2023 in Rome representing the "Fédération française d'Othello".

Marc was a table judge in the World Othello Championship 2022 in Paris and this was a major turning point as it made him want to take the extra step and become a recognisable name among European players.
