I feel as if I am on an archeological dig uncovering gems who’s voices are not being heard and should be. Mark is a graduate of Georgetown University in sociology (he is “fascinated by others”), is a voracious reader of the classics from an early age (Nietzsche, Proust, Freud, Chekhov, and Bronte), a product of a family who moved a lot and as a result, has lived all over the world, and was free enough to rid himself of all technology for a year and live in a tree house. He looks like a character in a Shakespearean play in his romantic blouses, fur capes, velvet two-piece ensembles, and tights. And he is a Renaissance man in his wide-open curiosity for life. Mark was born on “the day of wonder,” and says that he refuses to live in a defined box. He is as thoughtful at putting himself “out there” in a “non-verbal” way in his style as he is with his words, while remaining completely unpretentious and a genuine class act.

he’s great. i love hearing about his travel experiences.
you’re a beautiful person. so interesting.
He’s right about tattoos. Well, I share the same view. Sometimes you just want beautiful things on your body. Of course, it’s not wrong to have a meaningful tattoo but sometimes people put too much pressure on it.
I agree about the tattoos as well. A breast or nose augmentation is a much larger and invasive procedure but is done purely for aesthetic reasons and not for meaning. I’d much rather have a beautiful tattoo with no meaning then an ugly one with meaning. although I do appreciate meaning behind it, people shouldn’t feel so pressured to have a story behind every one like the reality tattoo TV shows have made it out to be.
You always stand out in a crowd Mark and its always a pleasure running into you randomly on the streets of the mission or dolores park.
really enjoyed this one. he makes keds look really cool.
Oh, Mark!! xoxxx, your coffee boy
