Get to know Mark

The first driving force in my life was athletics, specifically baseball. As a kid, I always answered ‘professional baseball player’ when asked what I wanted to be when I grew up. Throughout my teenage years, I became determined to make that dream a reality. I was driven to work hard toward that goal, I played with determination and did not let my size get in my way. As a pitcher I was always told I was too small, however, I never let size stop me. I spent six years playing professional baseball in the minor league systems of the Kansas City Royals and the Cincinnati Reds. Not only did I learn valuable athletic skills as a player, I learned many things about teamwork, organization, time management, and the importance of giving back to your community. Although my professional baseball career ended, I continue to love the game and stay involved by helping young pitchers learn the same skills. I am also proud to say I am teaching my love of the game to my own children and the teams I have coached for many years now.

When my baseball career ended, I became a meter reader for Virginia Natural Gas and was fortunate enough to spend twelve years with a great company. As a meter reader, I was often a customer’s first, or only glimpse, of Virginia Natural Gas. I was in the community talking to customers, answering their questions, and helping them when necessary. I learned so many things about customer service, especially how to treat people. Although I loved my job, made many friends, and enjoyed the security of working for a large company, my desire to build something of my own was very strong and after many months of prayer and research, I stepped out in faith to start my own company.
