Testimonials
“Sometimes when I watch Apple product launch videos, I wonder if Mark consulted on them, his style is so svelte.
He is able to take abstract concepts and verbal diarrhea and turn it into polished diamonds.
Seriously, if I had 1% of the talent he possesses in just his mouse-finger, I could probably quit my job and go work at Pixar and animate a feature length movie in my sleep.
tl:dr; Mark's a solid dude, and his accent's pretty neat too.”
“Before we hired Mark I read his testimonials and thought ‘Surely these can’t be true’.
Turns out they are.
Mark is a unicorn. The greatest designer I’ve ever witnessed. But what I value most is the excitement he brings to your entire company that makes you all feel world-class.”
“Succinctly put, Mark is the best interaction designer I have ever worked with.
He embodies modern design and product management philosophies, and is driven to help any organization understand the value of working with these philosophies in mind.
Mark is a natural leader and is one of the few people I trust deeply as a mentor to my team members. He makes anyone with whom he works better. He makes any problem on which he focuses tractable.”
“Mark is a true design ambassador... who can back ‘it all’ up with skill, dedication, and execution.
If you want to elevate design at your company... can get over that Aussie accent ;) and are lucky enough to snatch him up... then Mark is your guy!”
“Spending time with Mark has been one of the highest leverage activities for our product team.
It's remarkable how much progress we make each meeting — solving tricky UX problems, brainstorming new product ideas, and creating concrete action plans.
It sometimes feels like our team saved an entire week by having a one hour conversation with Mark.”
“Mark's experience leading high-performing design teams at design-centric companies (Uber, Adobe, and Google) proved to be an invaluable asset to our growing team and nascent design function.
Mark is easy to work with and will readily engage in brainstorming, but also keeps us focused on the main thing and shares feedback in a candid (and refreshing) manner.”
“Mark is an absolute force of nature.
His experience allows him to tackle a design problem from so many angles that overnight he becomes the linchpin to any project he touches. He is a fantastic collaborator and a unicorn UX/UI/Motion designer.
A rare combination and I can't wait to work with him again!”
“Mark is a rockstar.
When he's on your team, beautiful design work seems to effortlessly start appearing from him and other designers on the team. From UX to UI, marcomm, animation, interactive prototypes — you name it, they are done beautifully and quickly.”
