Early Beginnings: The Spark of Creativity

Born on September 26, 2001, Markos was introduced to the world of design at 15 years old when he entered a logo design contest hosted by the University of Trinidad and Tobago (UTT). Despite having no formal training, his creativity earned him first place, igniting his passion for design. More than the prize, he was fascinated by the idea of creating something digitally that held real-world value.

Diving into Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, he immersed himself in graphic design and started sharing his work online. His bold and surreal digital art caught attention on Twitter, leading to commissions from major brands such as Nike, Red Bull, Sony, and GFUEL by the age of 17. His collaborations extended to high-profile personalities like PewDiePie, KSI, Ninja, and FaZe Clan, cementing his place in the creative industry.

The Struggle: A Hard Fall and a Harder Comeback

Markos' ambition led him to launch his own branding and marketing agency in 2019, offering brand identity, advertising, and social media strategies. However, his lack of business experience and financial mismanagement caused an unstable income flow. By 2021, his business collapsed, leaving him evicted from his apartment and struggling with depression and self-doubt.

Determined to rebuild, Markos rethought his approach and started offering free services in exchange for referrals. Within months, he secured high-value clients and transitioned to selling yearly service retainers instead of monthly fees. By February 2022, he had earned $160,000 USD, making him a cash millionaire in Trinidad & Tobago. This marked a new era of success and stability in his career.

Building an Art Empire: Genes Art Collection

In 2024, Markos returned to his artistic roots and launched Genes Art Collection, a luxury art brand specializing in one-of-one masterpieces for elite collectors. His artworks became sought-after within his wealthy network, commanding a minimum price of $3 million USD per piece. By the end of 2024, one of his pieces sold for $115 million USD, solidifying his name in the global art industry.

By January 2025, Genes Art Collection had a valuation of $1.14 billion USD, making Markos one of the youngest billionaires in the art world. His artistic creations, deeply reflective of his journey, became not just valuable assets but symbols of perseverance, ambition, and mastery.

Giving Back: Fully Philanthropy and Social Impact

Understanding the weight of financial struggle and hardship, Markos founded Fully Philanthropy, a mission-driven organization dedicated to uplifting 1 million families every month. His philanthropy includes rent payments, scholarships, medical assistance, and business funding for underprivileged individuals. By 2023, he had donated over $1 million USD, becoming widely recognized in Trinidad for his acts of generosity and impact-driven initiatives.

A Search for Deeper Meaning

Despite his immense success, by 2024, Markos found himself feeling unfulfilled. He had achieved wealth and recognition, yet something felt missing. He began to seek a deeper connection with God, questioning his purpose beyond material success. This led him to redefine his priorities, focusing on art, innovation, and philanthropy as true measures of success rather than wealth alone.

The Legacy of Professor Markos

Today, Professor Markos is a symbol of resilience, innovation, and generosity. His journey teaches that failure is not the end-it is a lesson. His ability to rise from the lowest point to billion-dollar success proves that ambition, creativity, and discipline can create extraordinary outcomes.

With Genes Art Collection setting new standards in luxury art and Fully Philanthropy impacting millions, Markos is shaping the future-one masterpiece and one act of kindness at a time.
