    Education

    Mark was born and raised in Chelsea, Alabama to parents who worked in engineering and project management. When he graduated from Chelsea High School, he fully intended to work as a pipefitter welder, never considering he might have an aptitude for law. After obtaining his certifications in welding, Mark began searching for jobs right out of high school. At his mom’s request, he applied to one school – the University of Alabama. When he got in, he agreed to try it out for one semester. This decision changed the trajectory of his career. Mark fell in love with the school and graduated in May 2013 with a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice.

    After completing his undergraduate studies, Mark attended Cumberland School of Law at Samford University, where he served as treasurer for the Student Bar Association and graduated in 2015 with his Juris Doctorate. Intent on becoming a criminal prosecutor for the state, Mark clerked at the Montgomery attorney general’s office and the district attorney’s office in Jefferson County. He knew for certain that one; he wanted to be in the courtroom, and two; he wanted to help crime victims prosecute those who had wronged them. Mark soon discovered that he could still help victims in a different area of law – personal injury. In 2015, when one of his professors offered him a clerking job at his advertising personal injury firm, Mark seized the opportunity. He obtained his license to practice that year and has worked in personal injury since.
