  • Mark has a curiosity for consumer electronics and gadgets, which stems from a childhood of taking apart and fixing broken electronic toys and an ever-growing respect for ingenuity. If it's a device with buttons, no matter how niche, he'll delight in tinkering with it.
  • He is a lifelong gamer who is constantly at odds with an impossible backlog that's often set aside to revisit classics like Nightmare Creatures and Haunting: Starring Polterguy. When time permits, he dabbles in industry coverage, focusing heavily on horror and quirky gaming peripherals.
  • He frequently attends high-profile conventions and expos as media to cover the latest trends in gaming and technology. Among his most frequented are the Consumer Electronics Expo and PAX West, though he appreciates smaller shows as it's easier to engage with exhibitors and test their new products.

Experience

Mark's freelance career started one January morning in 2009 when he started writing PlayStation 3 news and reviews for Examiner.com. He continued to cover the gaming industry through freelance work at Cultured Vultures, Bloody Disgusting, Indie Game Culture, Ready Game Survive, and The Game Skinny, while developing his personal tech and gaming platform, LoPrototype Tech. In 2022, he pivoted to writing hands-on product reviews for brands like Razer, HP, Govee, Lenovo, GEEKOM, Gigabyte, and Bluetti at How-to Geek. He joined Static Media in 2023, where his expertise has spanned sustainable technology, consumer-friendly how-to guides, and more.
