Mark loves graphic design. He is creative and enthusiastic and it shows in his work.

Sharon Zinner Morrison

I had the opportunity to work with Mark at Wyers Direct where we worked closely together a number of design projects. The majority of projects he worked on were for not-for-profit organizations. Before starting a project, Mark would take the time to look at the reason behind a fundraising campaign or the goal of that particular not-for-profit organization which gave him a true passion for his work. Mark has a very easy going demeanor which allows him to work well under pressure and never stress about last minute deadlines or changes! He is an excellent designer, art director and teammate who would be a great addition to any agency.
