Speaker Bio
The entrepreneurial spirit runs in Mark’s DNA. Literally. Like his dad and brother, Mark learned to run a business before he learned to drive. These days, he’s all grown up and a founder of Oodle, one of the fastest-growing digital agencies in America.

As chief strategist, Mark lays the frameworks for powerful digital ecosystems that drive outstanding results for Oodle’s clients. One heck of a motivator, he makes his team and clients smile from ear to ear.

His strategic thinking and fingerprints can be found all over brands such as the University of Cincinnati, Nathan’s Famous Hot Dogs, UC Health, Ferno, Coney Island, and Verst Group Logistics.

A perpetual overachiever, Mark double majored at Xavier University to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Marketing and Management.

In his free time, which is a rarity between running an Inc. 5000 company and being dad-o to two (and another on the way), Mark games it up on PC and Xbox, volunteers at church, and crushes PRs at the gym.

Mark is always down for a round of ping pong. But don’t let his smile and playful demeanor fool you. He’s a fierce competitor and the top-rated ponger at the agency.
