Google ‘Marco Pecota’ right now. If you only scanned that Toronto Star article and you simply glanced at that Globe and Mail piece and took a quick peek at the IMDb page, I’ll save you the trouble of asking and just give you a simple answer: Yes, that’s all about the same Marco Pecota. Marco is a man inspired. He’ll be the first to tell you that he has no formal education as an industrial designer, but there he is featured in the Life section of Canada’s largest online news feed as well as in the Home and Garden section of Canada’s most read newspaper. He’s also not a film school graduate,
but he was nominated for a Genie Award – which recognize the best of Canadian Cinema and Television. Marco prescribes to, in his words, “the old adage that if you bake bread and everyone buys your bread, you’re a baker.”
