<p>Mark began his career as a touring musician, meeting his wife in Up With People.  He went on to play music professionally for numerous bands for twelve years and then renovated houses in St. Louis Missouri before getting his Master of Philosophy and teaching community college in Littleton Colorado for nine years.  Yet again, a change was needed and so Mark and Helle packed up and moved to New Hampshire to start a farm.  Mark and Helle have been married for thirty-one years and currently live in the Dallas area where Mark writes, builds furniture, and records music to help raise money for animal sanctuaries.</p>
