Mark combines his love for investing, fulfilling relationships, and the natural world, with his desire to form a partnership with all stakeholders of Atlas Sustainable Wealth. He is a fiduciary, upholding the highest ethical standards, has a lifelong commitment to learning, and invests for clients in the same way he does for himself.
Originally from England, Mark developed a love for the great outdoors while playing sports. He played professional soccer in England, which helped him move to Baltimore and attend college at Loyola University Maryland. At Loyola he built the foundation for his financial career and found a passion for investing. He went on to develop a deep understanding of financial markets as an analyst for a hedge fund during the 2008 Financial Crisis.
He joined a regional wealth management firm in 2011 to work with individuals, families, and business owners, helping them plan and invest. In 2014 he became Chief Investment Officer, responsible for $1 Billion of investments, and created a Sustainable Investment Program.
In 2017, he joined a national investment firm focused exclusively on Sustainable Investing, and in early 2019 he founded Atlas Sustainable Wealth. He also teaches finance at Loyola University Maryland.
