Bio
Co-Founder and Barista, BigBadCollab.
Mark is passionate about work that matters. He works with people that truly care and are as committed to making an impact as he is. As a twenty-year veteran with deep experience in leadership, technology, venture capital and strategic consulting, Mark brings a unique blend of business and financial guidance to the leadership team. He has managed and led with global leading companies, and as a seasoned CIO, he has led large globally-distributed technology teams of multi-disciplinary backgrounds. His work has included vastly complex integrations, dispersed time tables with multiple business units, outside suppliers and multi-million dollar budgets.
Back down to earth, he has performed due diligence on tech startups, providing financial governance and oversight management. This has included both inside and outside leadership. His experience allows him to lead BBC’s successful business planning and capital development plan (we are aiming to accomplish a few things).
Mark is a seventh-generation Texan with a BBA in Economics/Finance from Baylor University. He is married to his high school sweetheart and best friend for the last twenty plus years. Together they are raising their three awesome teens.
