Marco Pasqua

Marco has been involved in acting and background work since the early 1990's. He's always had a passion for the camera and he first started speaking in front of large audiences at the age of 10; it was then that he realized the impact that words can have. Since then, He's been involved with a number of organizations as a spokesperson, helping to spread advocacy for persons with disabilities across Canada, and proving that anything is possible when you invest the right kind of energy and creativity. Aside from his work in the film industry, Marco has built his own brand as an Inspirational Speaker, and has had the privilege to present for TEDxStanleyPark, The United Way impact speaker campaigns and The Duke of Edinburgh Awards. As an entrepreneur, he has remained focused on social impact and has helped to build brands in the tech industry, with a particular focus on accessibility. In 2013, he was named "Entrepreneur of the Year" by the Self-Employment and Entrepreneur Development Society and is recognized as a "Paul Harris Fellow" by Rotary International. Advocating for universal design and inclusion is among his passions. This work has led him to consult with municipalities & business leaders on inclusive employment strategies for people with disabilities, including the Province of BC's employment advisory committee the Presidents Group.
