He has volunteered with Architecture for Humanity since 2004 and has worked on public interest design projects in the United States, Africa, and India. In 2009, Mark led an interactive workshop with Jitegemee to plan and design the new buildings and campus. In 2013, he led the ‘A Place To Go’ project which designed and funded the construction of a biogas toilet for the program which creates energy from waste. Mark believes that design can make the world a better place and should be driven by culture, ecology, and social impact. Mark completed his Master of Architecture from Norwich University in 2004 and currently lives in Washington, DC. Mark loves all plants and animals, especially sharks and dinosaurs, watching zombie movies, and he only sings in falsetto.
