About Mark

While studying to become a Marriage & Family Therapist & obsessed by a need for deeper understanding of gender roles, Mark witnessed that a woman’s power lies in the authentic expression of her heart.  He realized that for women to step fully into this required tremendous courage, personal reinvention and a powerful strategy designed specifically to handle the push-back from men and society.  Mark instantly knew his destiny lied on another path so he dropped out of graduate school… reinvented his own self and faced his biggest fear… SELLING.   

Since then Mark has executed over 450 branding & promotional campaigns for clients like McDonalds, Budweiser & 100’s of Visionary Entrepreneurs. In 2004, Mark stepped back to evaluate his business and realized that over 80% of his best clients were ambitious WOMEN Entrepreneurs & Executives.

As the founder of the “Heart-Centered Influence Institute for Visionary Women” Mark lives his passion… supporting women to be deeply seen & appreciated for her feminine gifts; working together in collaboration to create a ROCKIN VISION that fulfills her inner calling while transforming self, community and culture.  Mark’s journey has uncommonly prepared him to teach VISIONARY WOMEN the skills of authentic leadership for creating a movement & fulfilling their vision.

Over 150,000 people have experienced Mark’s inspirational  presentations. Author of 2 books, the Ebook “I can… I will… & Therefore I Must” and the book “The Inspirational Communicator”.

Mark Inspires Entrepreneurs & Executive Women across the US with inspirational keynotes, mentorship programs & immersion trainings on authentic leadership, identity reinvention, spiritual mind training & visionary philanthropic influence strategy.

Mark & his dog Buddy split their time between the beautiful Alaskan summers and mild winters of Northern California wine country.
