Hello. I'm Mark. 👋

I’m a content marketer and PR specialist from the SF Bay Area.

I spin a good yarn and distill jargon into crisp, clear, engaging copy. To wit: Bob Carrigan, CEO of Audible, called my newsletter “one of the more entertaining and informative recaps [he’s] read in a while (maybe ever).”

Over the past decade, I’ve penned hundreds of blogs and bylines on behalf of founders, startups, and VC firms, landing pieces in outlets like Rolling Stone, TechCrunch, and The Next Web, in addition to website, video, and app store copy.

Sometimes I rap about multi-factor authentication, and channel Kenny Rogers for venture capital country songs.

On the PR side, I’ve secured tier-one coverage for company launches, hiring and funding announcements while successfully pitching for media appearances and awards (Today Show, Forbes 30 Under 30, CNBC Disruptor 50). Past clients include Ezetap, "the Square of India" (acquired by Razorpay); unicorns H2O.ai, Signifyd, and MaintainX; Vistar Media (acquired by T-Mobile); and API.ai (acquired by Google). I also helped launch Nanit, the top smart baby monitor on the market.
