Mark, Senior Director of Technology for Dynapower, joined the company after spending two decades leading R&D organizations for power generation and upstream oil & gas industries.
After receiving his BSME, MSME, and PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana (UIUC), he began his career at the General Electric (GE) Global Research Center in Niskayuna, NY. As his leadership prowess grew, GE asked him to lead teams around the world: Bently Nevada in Minden, NV; Xin Hua in Min Hang, China; Sondex in Bramshill, England; GE Oil & Gas in Houston, TX.
Mark has experience leading large teams (200+ engineers and scientists) versed in mechanical, electrical, systems, physics, and digital engineering. While he is proud of the 60+ cutting-edge products released during the past 20 years, he is equally fulfilled by the engineering leaders he helped nurture and grow in each organization.
Mark is currently the President of the UIUC MechSE Alumni Board. In his spare time, Mark enjoys hiking in the Adirondack Mountains of NY with his wife and two children.
