My wife Ginny and I have lived in the Hillsboro School District for over 20 years.  Our two children attended L.C. Tobias Elementary, Brown Middle School and Century High School.

In 2002 I started a sports technology company creating products for teams in Major League Baseball and the National Hockey League (be sure to ask me about your favorite team!).  

At our company's outset I talked to local coaches to recruit student athletes as our first employees.  With our two kids having gone through the band program at Century High School, I know that it takes a combination of academics, athletics, the arts and other activities to create a well rounded person.

If re-elected, I will work to ensure that we continue to prepare our students for college, career, community and beyond.

"Mark is very approachable.  He doesn’t make assumptions and is willing to listen to anyone who has a suggestion, a concern or an idea.  He is very knowledgeable and researches issues carefully.  He has served on the Hillsboro School District Board of Directors for the past four years and participated on a number of Hillsboro School District committees.  Mark cares deeply about the students, families and staff of the District.  I recommend him without reservation for another term on the Board of Directors."
