Mark is originally from Cleveland, OH and came to Hawaii nearly 20 years ago on a two week vacation; first time on a plane, first time to see the ocean and the first time outside the mid-west.  He fell in love with Hawaii, it’s culture and people and did not return back to Cleveland.

He began his working career at a very young age in Cleveland, OH. When he was 8 years old, his father bought him a lawn mower and some gas and told him to go and cut the next door’s neighbors lawn and charge $15 a month. (after he cut his father’s grass). By the time Mark was 14 he was mowing over 25 lawns a week and often employed a couple of his friends when things got real busy.  Since being a child, Mark has realized the value of working hard and taking pride in his work.

Mark attended Cleveland Heights High School and the Ohio State University.
