Marc began his career at Adobe 11 years ago, as an engineer on the Photoshop team, where he worked on the UNIX version of Photoshop. Soon after that, Marc began working on the task of introducing grids and guides to Photoshop 4. By the time Photoshop 6.0 (pron. "six-point-oh") came around, Marc had moved into a management position, where he would oversee engineering teams, and it was in this role that he worked as lead engineer and team manager to transition Photoshop LE into the powerhouse consumer version of Photoshop, called Photoshop Elements.
