About
A technology-inspired design leader for digital products and services, Mark has worked globally across a range of industries. He is happiest at the intersection of design, technology, and human behavior, helping others be their best selves. He thrives in dynamic environments in the delivery of end-to-end product solutions, from AI-powered research to product-market fit. Mark has been called "a pretty good dude" by his best friend, "grandiloquent" by his 10th grade English teacher, and once for unknown reasons "Milfred" by a well-dressed older gentleman in a bow tie. Mark believes in wanderlust, dumplings, and you.
