Before becoming an educator, he worked in the film and television industry in several different roles assisting the production. He earned his Master’s of Arts in Rhetoric and Composition from the University of Central Florida and immediately moved to Massachusetts with the intent to pursue a career in independent school education. His interests and hobbies lie in geek culture and a love of gaming (digital and in-person), graphic novels, and film. He is an avid runner, an amateur chef, and an enthusiast of the written word.

Mark has been a member of the Eaglebrook faculty since 2000. He teaches Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Form English classes and coaches soccer, basketball, and track and field. He also heads the Sunday Meeting Committee. Mark is presently affiliated with Kravis House, but lived and advised in various dorms for twelve years. He and his wife Karen and their two sons Gavin, and Griffin now live off-campus in their 1830 farmhouse in Montague. Much of the home and the barn, has been rebuilt since a house fire in 2010. The world’s largest springer spaniel, Hudson, also resides with the family.
Mark enjoys reading historical nonfiction, baking chocolate chip cookies and drawing comic book action heroes. His drawing interest has sparked an elective offering in which he teaches students his craft. During the summers, Mark does two things he truly enjoys, painting houses and building dry-stack stonewalls. He also spends much of his time driving his boys to camps and activities but he still manages to get in some time for his other hobbies; splitting wood by hand and writing poetry.
