A native of New Orleans, Marshall cheered competitively for two years. He helped his high school cheer squad win back-to-back district championships, as well as make state championship appearances in each of those years. He was also selected to participate in a state-wide All-Star cheer squad, where they cheered in the All-Star football game in the then-Louisiana Superdome.

Marshall attended Loyola, where he was the school mascot for two years. Prior to the cheer team’s transition to a varsity sport, Marshall also volunteered with the club sport cheer team.

Marshall has eight years of choreography experience as a step team coordinator for local area fraternity and sorority chapters. He also choreographed the step routine for the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Week of Peace for four years.
