Oh, Hi! I’m Mark.

I am a UX designer with a background in writing and publishing.

From literature to digital products, I am drawn to media that can influence the way we think or behave. I appreciate nuances that deeply impact how we experience the things we consume. Seeing technology and design as extensions of storytelling, I am passionate about finding new ways to understand people’s motivations and frustrations, and offer modern solutions.

As a creative, I try to dabble in a bit of everything. My writing has been published in SAD Mag and withintensions, while I've worked with friends to make our own zines. I enjoy playing guitar and making beats to study to. Right now, I’m doing a bit of collaging.

I like expressing myself through creating in different media, but also through curating the art that's already out there.

These are a few of my favourite things:

Film:

In The Mood For Love

Wong Kar-wai, 2007

Painting:

Nighthawks

Edward Hopper, 1942

Novel:

A Little Life

Hanya Yanagihara, 2015

Video Game:

Inside

Playdead, 2018

Album:

Her Favorite Colo(U)r

Blu, 2010

Chair:

Wassily Chair

Marcel Breur, 1925
