About Marco
Marco J. Gochez was born on August 5th, 2002 in Miami, Florida. Shortly after his birth, him and his family moved to the Central American country of El Salvador where he spent the rest of his childhood. From an early age Marco was drawn to the spotlight. His first appearance in a commercial was as a baby for Huggies. When he grew to be a little older he starred in a commercial for popular Latin American airline Avianca, but it wasn’t until him and his family moved to California at the age of 8 that he began really developing his career.
Once in the United States, Marco began his acting training. He took classes anywhere he could ranging from scene study to improvisation to audition technique. He would spend his days after school training at a nearby arts academy, and his Saturdays at The Young Actors Studio in North Hollywood. Eventually, Marco enrolled in the program Actors Giving Back, where he landed himself an agent and began auditioning. His first day of auditions he booked a national commercial for Disney Infinity 3.0.
After his television debut in the Disney XD Special “Clash of Karts,” Marco enrolled in Encore High School for the Arts where he expanded his training to include voice and dance. Through their Encore Ambassador program, Marco performed all over the country in places such as The House of Blues, Carnival Cruises, and Pearl Harbor to name a few.
Recently, Marco made his musical debut with his Christmas EP “For You from Marco” and he plans on creating more music in the near future. Some other fun facts about Marco is that he created an apparel business called MJG Merch and is a certified All-American Cheerleader.
