Mark's entire career, over 30 years, has been in the computer industry.
After receiving his Masters degree form UT Austin, he began work with Control
Data Corporation (CDC) in Houston, TX. He worked as an Application Support Analyst
for CDC's Cybernet Service Bureau Division where he was responsible for assisting
customers using financial and operations research applications.
After 6 years, he was promoted to Senior Sales Account Executive selling data
services in Houston. His major customer was Tenneco Oil - Exploration and Production,
which was the largest customer in the Southwest Region. He achieved 100% Quota Club
for 6 straight years. He left CDC after 13 years.
The next 13 years he continued to sell software and services for ITT Dialcom,
Lotus Development, Comshare Inc. and Bridgeway Software. He has always focused on
introducing leading edge technology such as e-mail, Executive Information Systems,
client/server applications and Corporate Legal software to major corporations such

Browning-Ferris Industries.
In 1996, Mark was introduced to recruiting by a former peer and fell in love with
the business from the start. Mark's success has been due to his focus on customers
and helping them solve a problem. In recruiting, he now can help his clients as
well as candidates and hopefully bring the two together in a happy marriage.
"That's what is exciting and rewarding about this business, I get to help a client
and a candidate, two successes with a single transaction", says Mark.
Mark joined infoTEAM two years ago, his primary focus is sales but he also continues
to recruit candidates as well. His focus is with small to medium size companies and
has been very successful helping fast growth companies staff up quickly to meet
their needs. He is working exclusively with infoTEAM and is looking forward to
being part of infoTEAM for the foreseeable future.
