Marcus Chan

I am an editorial strategist and builder with a deep background in content leadership, now focused on the transformative potential of generative AI. With years of experience managing teams and editing complex ideas into clear narratives, I am applying my expertise to GenAI products and strategy. My goal is to help organizations harness GenAI to create smarter, more scalable content experiences, ensuring quality remains at the core.

Currently, I serve as a Gen AI Content Strategist and Emerging Technologist, where I have practical experience building and refining AI-powered content tools. I designed a functioning YouTube summarization app that utilizes Whisper for transcription and GPT-4 for multi-format summaries. I am also deepening my skills through advanced GenAI coursework and personal projects, continuously striving to innovate in this rapidly evolving field.

Previously, I held senior leadership roles at NerdWallet, overseeing a 100-person team and driving editorial excellence across personal finance topics. My leadership in recruitment, engagement, and retention initiatives significantly improved team culture and performance. I have a proven track record of creating tools to enhance team engagement and professional development, and I have collaborated with cross-functional teams to ensure strategic alignment and maximum impact for the business.
