Hailing from the Bronx, New York, Marques Payne has spent the majority of his career as a community organizer before the phrase became synonymous with President Obama. Marques then maintained successful endeavors as a non-traditional student at Mercy College as a Student Body President and subsequently becoming a Senate Intern for New York State Senator Kevin Parker. Utilizing the valuable skill set earned in the State Senate, Marques brought his expertise back to his borough and worked in the Bronx Central Council for Economic Development before becoming a consultant for community boards and local businesses. Under the principle of visibility plus credibility equaling profitability, Marques personified this mantra to gain attention from the Bronx Chamber of Commerce. In less than three years, Marques climbed from Membership and Merchant Services Coordinator to Director of Membership and Merchant Services, to his current position as Chief* Operations Manager of the Bronx Chamber of Commerce.
