"I am incredibly grateful for the people I've worked with and the friendships I've made along the way," said Marshall. "It's been a privilege to be part of this team and to tell the story of a brand that I truly believe in. However, after working hard and being on the road for almost 35 years, I've reached a time where I want to focus on my many other passions, such as supporting charitable work and those in need – as well as spending more time with my family."
"We are extremely happy for Marshall and his family", said Mark Broxon, CEO of Proven Winners. He has so many other interests and passions that he wants to pursue, and we are proud that he is moving to this next phase of his life. He has been a huge part of our success over the years".
With Marshall's departure, Brian Oster, currently the Senior Marketing Director for Proven Winners North America, will assume Marshall's responsibilities.
As Marshall steps away from the brand, Proven Winners has extended its heartfelt thanks for Marshall's many contributions, which will continue to influence the brand for years to come.
