Bio
Aaron "Checo" Pacheco
I had the privilege of working with Mark for seven years at Acquia, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is one of the best software engineers that I have ever worked with. Brilliant, collaborative, and funny, he is the perfect partner for any Product Manager who is looking for thoughtful leadership, an inquisitive mind, and a can-do attitude. I also found that Mark had both the expertise and confidence to push back on unreasonable or impractical requests, which made our working relationship a great deal more effective. He quickly became a go-to partner for me as I was mastering my Product Management capabilities, and he has demonstrated time and again that he is 120% committed to doing the right thing for our customers and our teams. I sincerely hope that I get to one day work with him again!
