Marco Donatelli was born on the 27th of October, 2000 in Youngstown, Ohio. He was raised alongside his older sibling by his father Mark and his late mother Maria Donatelli.

Marco’s upbringing was not particularly warm, as he faced innumerable hardships and obstacles. By enduring and overcoming the challenges life presented him with, Marco emerged a stronger, smarter, and intellectually more agile person. 

Famous for numerous museums, history centers, and gorgeous landmarks, Marco’s hometown soon grew small for him. He migrated to Trumbull County, aiming to advance in his football career at the Girard High School, famed for winning multiple OHSAA State Championships, including Girls Track and Field in 1980, Boys Basketball in 1993, as well as Boys Cross Country in 1998 and 2000. 

Marco graduated from Girard High School with exemplary results, which enabled him to enroll in the University of Akron in northeast Ohio. As an aspiring student-athlete at Akron, Marco blossomed alongside his teammates on the Akron Zips Football team.

Established in 2009 and boasting an all-time record of 520-548-37, Akron Zips provided Marco Donatelli with an opportunity to showcase his talent in the big leagues for the first time. 

Sadly, the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic coincided with the end of Marco’s freshman campaign, halting Marco’s football career as the bigger portion of the globe became locked down. Training and matches were not possible to organize, but that did not discourage Marco Donatelli. 

During this period, Marco was heavily focused on creating and uploading viral content on TikTok with Mark, his father. In such a short time, Mark and Marco had garnered millions of views and thousands of followers. 

Propelled by the massive reach of his TikTok videos, Marco decided to collaborate with various social media celebrities and influencers across different social networks. This venture has established Marco Donatelli as a de-facto social media celebrity himself, which helped him land roles in various brands.

Marco imparted that he was in touch with Netflix regarding several upcoming roles for series and reality television shows. Meanwhile, he slowly but surely worked his way into the modeling scene, reaching the upper echelons in what is considered to be one of the most competitive industries across the globe. 

Through talent, hard work, and outstanding willpower, Marco Donatelli has achieved all this and more before graduation. 

Currently, Marco Donatelli has transferred to the esteemed Florida Atlantic University, famed for being home to innumerable nationally ranked programs in computer science, online education, engineering, and business. 

Marco imparted that he plans to continue scoring exemplary grades and stated that his wish was to graduate soon, hoping that this will enable him to open his chiropractic office, through which he plans to give back to the communities that helped him achieve such a massive magnitude of success.
