HI, I’m mark. i’m eager to meet you!
It all started in 2003…
I was studying neuroscience in college, spending student loan money on eBay and feeling sad every time I checked my ex-girlfriend’s Myspace page. That’s when I realized just how much my online habits were affecting my mental and emotional well-being.
Since then, I’ve made it my mission to help people defeat distractions and reconnect with what truly matters. With a deep understanding of today’s digital world, I blend personal storytelling and research to highlight the power of human connection and its impact on workplace culture.
I help leaders and teams overcome disconnection, recharge mentally, and build stronger, more engaged workplaces—one meaningful connection at a time.
One way I do that is by modeling vulnerability through a prompt called, If you really knew me..
If You Really Knew Me…You’d Know:
I have 2 kids, 3 dogs, and 1 wife! They are my everything
I have a brother with special needs who I love dearly
I defeat seasonal depression every winter
Forrest frank is my #1 artist on Spotify :-)
I’ve done 2 TED talks and 200 keynotes in the past 3 years
I enjoy Helping people Connect and model authentic vulnerability at my eventS and have written 2 books on the topic!
Some of my clients integrate my books Content into the conference in really interactive ways!
