Mark Quattrocchi is an incredible global adventurer, international educator, author, ambitious change-maker and, a world-class motivational speaker. In 2014, after taking his passion for education to an elementary school in Southern China, Mark made the bold decision to take a truly unconventional route home. Setting out with only his bicycle and the few things he could carry, Mark began an extraordinary continent-spanning journey. Charting a path around the world, his travels brought him from China all the way through Asia, Europe, Africa, South and North America and ending back in his home country of Canada. This adventure took him through the sweeping plains of Kyrgyzstan, war-torn Afghanistan, vibrant streets of India, scorching sandy deserts of Sudan and so much more. By the time he set his feet back down on Canadian soil, he’d spent an incredible two years cycling through more than 40 countries. This was a cultural immersion like no other—Mark often relied on the kindness of strangers as he weathered the many challenges this life-changing ride put him up against. When facing exhaustion, mechanical issues or even the loneliness that comes with hundreds of consecutive days on the road, Mark was often welcomed with open arms by the countless new people and cultures he encountered. To give back, Mark used his tour to fundraise $50,000 for educational projects, building five schoolrooms in countries he visited along the way. Now, with five continents and 35,000 kilometers behind him, Mark is ready to share his learning experience and the many powerful words of wisdom he gathered along the way. His unique perspective, as an adventurer as well as a husband, new father and author of 'The Cycle of Life: The Power of Saying Hello' has been celebrated on Global National, CTV Morning Live and The Huffington Post. Mark is excited to continue sharing his inspiring story with corporate groups, HR groups, educators and audiences of all ages.

OUR CEO & TALENT DIRECTOR Bradford's love for music has existed since his early years of grade school. He began marching in his local high school band as a percussionist while only in the 4th grade. He also was apart of numerous academic clubs and played multiple sports such as baseball and football as well. Graduating high school with honors, he later turned his focus on growing his love for the inspiring world of music. Intrigued with the business of the entertainment industry this would lead to his head start once recognized by Trill Entertainment and partnered with Savage Life Entertainment. During this time he was call to serve his country while still working under their wing serving as a manager. He was later released on honorary discharge and began to work full time in the music industry protecting and serving the growth of other talents . Since then Bradford has worked with many other labels, in the industry from independent to mainstream. In 2016 Bradford would then breathe life into his own success by creating Blu Management Talent Agency. "When I came home from the military I saw things a bit differently than before. I saw that no one cared about the new talent that wanted to be heard or recognized, but no budget. I created BMTA as a way to help lead the talents in the right direction and teach them as they progress in the entertainment industry. I have nothing to hide but it always seemed as if the industry did. I felt change was necessary." Under his leadership Blu Management has made a difference in many of his talents careers and lives as well. In 2018 his company was accepted as Louisiana's 1st Veteran Owned Talent Agency, and was recommended to receive a Recording Academy Award by 2019. Today Bradford has produced growth on all new levels in the industry by becoming Co-Owner of his own entertainment network on Roku called LOUISIANA VIRAL MEDIA NETWORK. Bradford's success can only grow from here and he says he still has room to learn more everyday as this fast paced industry continues to progress. © 2021 by BLU MANAGEMENT TALENT AGENCY NEW ORLEANS, LA Do Not Sell My Personal Information
