Mark is a career carpenter/cabinetmaker who, for the past thirteen years, has been teaching high school woodshop and incorporating creative turning in students courses. He is an active demonstrator and workshop leader for woodturning clubs, and both regional and national symposia.

Currently, he is serving his second term as an AAW board member and is an active member of the Blue Ridge Woodturners of Southwest Virginia. His work has been shown at the Artisan Center of Virginia and The Art Museum of Western Virginia.
