Bio
John Ettorre
I was fortunate enough to work with Mark at the dawn of his professional career, and found him to be an unusually dedicated, serious guy, who paid close attention to detail. So it's no surprise that he's blossomed into a great magazine editor.
Douglas Arnold
Mark is very talented individual. He is both writer and designer plus throw in editor and project manager. I've worked with him on an extensive corporate brochure of 30 pages. Mark did it all and takes pride in his work. The piece came out beautifully and I would recommend him for any marketing communications challenges.
