What impressed me most about Mark was his sense of urgency with regard to the customer. He went "above and beyond" on more than one occassion to get product made and delivered to our customers. He even got in the car and made 3 hour drives (one way) to make sure we exceeded customer expectations. If Mark says it is getting done, you know it will be.
