In 1961, the family moved to Roseburg and finally settled in Oakridge in 1964. Dad, Ken, started Postal Pharmacy and mom, Carolyn, began her teaching career at Willamette Elementary.

Upon graduation, Mark attended Oregon State for two years, playing trumpet for the marching band and the basketball band. He enlisted in the Army from 1984-1987. Upon his return from the Army, he moved to Klamath Falls where he attended O.I.T and obtained a degree in Electrical Engineering.
