Mark, a second generation Italian American, was raised in rural Connecticut. His strong family traditions of sharing with others and living in harmony with the earth continue today.
Mark moved to Phoenix in 1968 to continue a banking career that had begun in New York four years earlier. He remained a banker until 1990. His responsibilities took him to the four corners of the state and throughout the west. While he lived in Phoenix, Mark was also very active in community and civic affairs.
Mark and his wife, Barbara, moved to Sedona in 1993 to open The Lodge at Sedona, a large Bed and Breakfast Inn that they owned and operated for eight years, retiring to enjoy their 5 grandchildren.
Both Mark and Barbara have been active in community affairs, serving on boards and projects including the Sedona Chamber of Commerce and Verde Valley Sanctuary.
Mark was appointed to the City Council in June 2009. His philosophy of government service is to put principles before personalities and do what is best for the whole.
