Marc Semmelmann is more than just a business leader; he’s the heart and soul behind our company. With a profound dedication to his core values, Marc has shaped his life with a simple but powerful motto: “You’re getting what you’re getting because you’re giving what you’re giving.”
Before he became an entrepreneur, philanthropist, and business leader, Marc was a student-athlete playing football at the University of Texas. He’s a devoted family man, a loving husband, and a proud father of three. At 43, life threw him a curveball when he was diagnosed with a life-threatening disease called dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma, or bone cancer. Marc’s journey through this challenging chapter left an indelible mark on him.
Today, Marc stands as the only known survivor in the world of this cancer. Through his struggles and triumphs, he’s learned the importance of giving back and cherishing every moment life offers.
Marc’s successful battle with cancer was made possible, in part, by the expertise of orthopedic doctors. CompSmart is Marc’s small way of giving back to the community that played a crucial role in saving his life. With over 25 years of experience in the workers’ comp insurance cost containment and ancillary services world, he’s now using his knowledge to help them run a more profitable business.
Marc’s story is one of resilience, hope, and gratitude. His warm-hearted dedication to giving back is at the heart of our company’s values, and we’re proud to have him as our leader. Through his journey, he reminds us of the power of community and the importance of never losing sight of what truly matters: life and the people we share it with.
