After seven years with AGC, Mark was recruited by and joined Walters Golf, the largest golf course operator in Nevada, as their Executive Vice President. As the result of his technology initiatives and relationship development experience Mark successfully helped this portfolio of high-end resort facilities stop a trend of eroding market share despite dramatically increasing competition and the lingering impact of 9/11. He then joined Leisure Industries, a time share and land development company, as their Vice President of Golf Operations. In this role Mark oversaw the acquisition of the company’s first golf course and created an operating division within the company to support additional properties.
A Cum Laude graduate of the University of Toledo, Mark has been directly involved with the profitability of literally hundreds of courses and his systems and resources continue to be utilized at facilities around the country today. His extremely broad experience has helped him to build one of the largest knowledge bases of best practices in the entire industry.
