Mars discovered his passion for storytelling during his teenage years, initially through songwriting with his best friend. As time passed, this love for storytelling expanded beyond music, leading him to explore the realms of cameras and production in his later college years. Working alongside Ashley on projects, his love and appreciation for beautiful imagery grew.

In his adult years, Mars immersed himself in the stories of vanlife, collaborating with brands as a social media influencer and touring partner, while documenting the journey through @thefites. Now, he channels that experience into sharing the stories of others.
