“I had the good fortune to work with Mark as Cambia became part of nCircle and was able to experience the strengths of his style firsthand. Mark is highly skilled in both the art and science of marketing. He is clearly experienced in the discipline of product management and has a great affinity for representing and communicating the needs of the customer throughout the organization. He added tremendously to our positioning. Mark is analytical and able to analyze data very effectively, but balances this with his great marketing instincts. He is creative, able to look at a problem in a unique way and provide thoughtful solutions. Mark is a good team player and was a pleasure to work with.”

-- Elizabeth Ireland, VP Marketing, nCircle, August, 2010

“Along with being an expert in product management, Mark is an extremely talented marketer. At Cambia, he developed a set of marketing metrics dashboards that gave us insight into exactly how our marketing programs were performing. The dashboards were so useful that I continue to use a variant of them with my clients to this day, several years later. Mark also taught me the invaluable skill of managing a marketing budget like a financial portfolio to achieve the highest return on our marketing investments. I highly recommend Mark, as he intuitively understands what’s really important in marketing, and I use many of his influential ideas in my own approach to marketing today.”

-- Shala Nicely, Director Marketing, Cambia, August 2010

“Mark is one of the few people I know who deeply understands and is passionate about product management. He is constantly learning and this is contagious to the people around him. He expects as much out of himself as the people he manages. I highly recommend Mark as a product management executive.”

-- Tim Keanini, Chief Technology Officer, nCircle, August 2010

“Mark successfully introduced a new level of product management discipline at nCircle, and did so starting from the challenging position of being acquired. He consistently pushed the organization to make the hard choices necessary to move important work forward. He was also a great VP to work for, providing plenty of freedom to succeed and appropriate guidance and buffering where required.”

-- Tim Erlin, Principal Product Manager, nCircle, August 2010

“I worked for Mark and would recommend him for any product management position. Mark is a highly skilled product management leader, with a passion for moving the organization forward. He is disciplined at keeping a focus on the customer and the market, ensuring solutions developed actually solve problems for which they are intended.”
