From the high rises of Oracle Corp. to the corner offices of boutique consulting firms - I'm here for you...when it just needs to get done!
Ironically, I've never been formally trained for a single position in my career. Ever. I learned about how to do my jobs through observing, questioning and making mistakes at a high rate of speed! Doing this for others became my calling.
From humble beginnings to a corner office at Oracle Corporation to a boutique consulting firms, I'm here to move you into a strong competitive position.
My entire career has been figuring things out, doing things supposedly smarter people couldn't and creating new opportunities across a variety of industries including tech, hospitality, training/consulting, construction, senior health care and assisted living. I'm an underdog, a scrapper, a dog on a mail person's pantleg — and I'm here for you.
My approach works across industries because it's based upon principles and first-hand experience. I'm no "chin scratcher." I'm a lunchbox pragmatist who grew up in a family business where there's no place to hide.

"Mark is an upbeat, energetic, and extremely knowledgeable consultant. His unique teaching style made him a joy to work with, and what had been a tedious and frustrating layout process for staff and other volunteers, was made manageable."
"I worked for Mark when he managed the curriculum development organization at Oracle Corporation. Mark was an energetic, smart, decisive, manager, who had a fully fleshed out vision for the department, and a keen eye for design and curriculum development. Mark was an outstanding mentor. I consider my time working for Mark as one of the key formative periods of my career in terms of learning how to effectively prioritize and publish courseware for use by a global organization. The courseware produced under Mark's tutelage gained the highest customer satisfaction ratings of any company I've worked for."

I thrive on the challenges of your challenges. I insist on being paid for results delivered — not “looking busy.” Any reporting/communication is conveniently scheduled and crisp because we both have work to do!
You can be assured that my time with you will be spent on the things that matter — not justifying how many billable hours I’ve spent working on it.
If you do not believe I have met the mutually established objectives for the project, I will continue to work toward those goals with all concerned for no additional fee or expense consideration.
Afterward, if you still believe I have not met the project objectives, I will refund your fees in total.
