Mark’s career as a professional educator includes over 27 years of classroom and administrative experience working with a wide variety of learning populations, including a focus on marginalized youth and adults throughout the Portland-Metropolitan region. He earned a B.S. in Science from Portland State University and an MAED in Computer-Based Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Phoenix.
