Marcus Randell

Hey there, I'm Marcus Randell. Originally from Portland, Maine, I moved to the West Coast for college and never looked back. After earning my Master's degree in Journalism from the University of California, Berkeley, I was captivated by the natural beauty and vibrant culture of California, which led me to settle here. My work spans various fields, including entertainment, music, sports, technology, and politics, and I am passionate about bringing insightful and engaging stories to the community. In my free time, I enjoy exploring California's stunning landscapes, attending local music and art events, and participating in community discussions on political issues. The blend of natural beauty and cultural richness in California continues to inspire and drive my commitment to journalism.
