ABOUT
Creativity is my life. I have over 28 years experience in design, identity and branding, as well as creative consulting in advertising and consumer experience within the healthcare industry.
I've been part of internal programs for marketing, innovation, first-impression development, design thinking, ethnographic interviewing, prototyping and journey mapping. I've developed business partnerships and transparency programs for branding and formed successful, transparent relationships that have impacted population health and the health care environment in general.
I love bringing the client’s story, dreams, and vision to life, it’s like making the perfect strokes of a painting, forming an inspirational synchronization and creative indulgence for all.

As a member of several boards, ranging from entertainment to healthcare, I have worked with Mark as he successfully led us in strategic marketing and branding. He has a knack for opening eyes to new possibilities and potential, or as William Blake wrote, “If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, Infinite.
I've partnered with Mark several times during the course of my journey in health care. He was key as an advisory board member for a start-up initiative I was involved in and developed the foundations of our branding strategy.
