Marko graduated from Elyria High School after spending his senior year at Lorain County Vocational School in their hospitality program.  He has participated in Special Olympics from 1st-12th grade in bowling, baseball, basketball, swimming, and track and field receiving many gold, silver and bronze medals at the state level.

Marko recently was co-chair for his senior prom and has also chaired 8 local AMVET sponsored Special Olympic dances with many different fun themes.  He loves to travel and has been to New York City, Niagra Falls, Toronto,  Las Vegas, Disney World, Grand Canyon, and many others fun places.

Marko loves to dance and sing, and watch sports including football, baseball, basketball and racing.  His next goal is to work "helping people."  He will begin job training on August 17th with the help of a job coach from Murray Ridge.  Once Marko has completed his training he will be working in the community and continuing to be involved in many fun things.

Congratulations Marko!  May God grant you many years!
