I drive revenue growth, brand relevance, and audience awareness for large corporations, impactful non-profits and small businesses. Proven track record of performance in developing and executing events and marketing strategies for world-class brands. I thrive on a challenge, working with $1M+ budgets, to exceed all expectations.
I’ve honed my expertise on “connecting the dots” - developing partnerships, producing experiential programs, and developing integrated content for iconic media brands, such as Vogue, Condé Nast, GLAAD, and Hearst Corporation. With a keen ability to interpret clients’ needs and deliver solutions, I managed successful programs for both luxury and mass brands, including Old Navy, Cadillac, David Yurman, H&M, Estée Lauder, Wella, Nike, and L’Oréal Paris. Efforts resulted in brand awareness, consumer loyalty, and sales across categories, including fashion, beauty, luxury, automotive, and consumer goods.
Prior to moving to New York 25 year ago, I worked for non-profits in both Miami and Washington, D.C. focused on program development and fundraising. Those experiences taught me the value of giving back, while learning strategic business practices that I apply to this day. Originally from South Jersey, I proudly say that I am from Atlantic City since most people have never heard of Margate.
“Mark is one of the most talented event producers I’ve ever worked with. His attention to detail, responsiveness, and problem solving is next level. He truly felt like a part of my events and owned his responsibilities from start to finish with complete openness to collaboration and feedback. He is truly my go-to guy for any event needs. ”
Mark, you are an absolutely amazing partner to collaborate with and your game time intensity and attention to detail is second to none. You rise to every challenge and deliver the incredible!
Our teams had such an amazing experience in the environment you curated and led - can’t wait to work together again soon and thank you for all you delivered for our leaders!
