Originally a computer engineer doing speech recognition research, he moved to product management about 20 years ago. Over the past 5 years, Mark has developed a passion for developer experience. Most recently at CircleCI as VP Product, and before that, at Heroku focusing on continuous delivery and the Heroku-GitHub integration. Outside of work he builds Star Wars Lego with his 5-year old son and dresses up his 2-year old daughter as a princess. A recent transplant to Chicagoland from California; you’ll often see him bundled up in a winter coat for no reason at all.
