Marco Dominguez
Marco Dominguez is a pioneer in Hispanic communications in the state of Indiana.
Born in Caracas, Venezuela, Marco came to the United States with his family looking for a place in which he could pursue his education in Telecommunications Arts.
Undecided on a school to attend, he was offered to either come to Seattle, Washington or Indianapolis, Indiana. At that time, he selected Indianapolis because "he knew that Indianapolis was in the middle of everything and also there was a car race in this state".
During 1980 thru 1984, Marco received two Associates Degrees from Vincennes University and then, came to Butler University for his Bachelor's Degree in Telecommunications Arts. In 1984, he returned to his home country to work in his own TV Production house. After 8 years in Venezuela, he decided to come back to continue his higher education.
Marco graduated from Butler University with a Masters Degree in Telecommunications. He was also an instructor at Butler University in Television Production and Direction.

In addition to serving as the station manager, he also worked as the news anchor, manager of sales and in any other capacity that the station required.
In 2005, Marco became a proud citizen of the United States.
