👋 I’m Mark

👉 What I’m doing now
Currently, I’m the Head of Product Design for Observe, Inc. An observability startup in San Mateo, CA.

🎨 As a designer
I design digital enterprise products, specializing in dense information architecture, user experience design, and product strategy. My passions lie in technology, solving complex problems, building viable tools, and sustainability. I’m extremely organized, methodical, and thrive on creating structure. I use these skills to transform the chaos of complex business problems into simple and elegantly designed solutions.

🧳 Fun career fact
When I was just 24, I helped build and run a small design agency, with clients that ranged from Genentech and Honda, to various startups. Our success allowed us to sell the agency and spin out Sureify, which started from an internal side project.

🏂 Outside of designing
I love to play ice hockey, rock out on the drums, hike with my Mini Australian Shepherd, mountain bike and snowboard. I’m also an avid San Jose Sharks fan (hence the URL) and am a 4th generation California native.
