I'm Mark! I graduated from The Ohio State University with a BS in Industrial Design and a minor in History of Art. I am currently a Director of Industrial Design at a manufacturing agency downtown Chicago that develops everything from toys to small electronics. I also enjoy tutoring and freelance on the side. I really enjoy helping those who are willing to help themselves, and I want to share my experience and expertise with them so they can grow professionally.

I have online tutoring experience and with quick responses and communications with all of my clients. I own a Freelance and Consultant Design Service dedicated to the seamless integration of the clients needs and applying the best practices to achieve the optimum results. Feel free to reach out to me any time with questions or comments.

I have over 20+ years experience in Design, that includes expertise in all of the software and skills required for the field of Industrial Design. Tools that I can help you with are: Adobe Suite; Photoshop, Illustrator, Fusion 360, Microsoft PowerPoint, web design and Office 365.

I feel like what makes me the best tutor for you would be my ability to understand your needs and apply the best method and techniques for optimal learning. Knowing the student/client and providing the most efficient and accurate information is what I do best.

As a father of three sons, director of design, design tutor, and numerous other client/freelance relations, I have developed patients and the ability to listen very carefully. By listening, I have learned what is needed most for success. Nothing gets me more exciting for me than to see those who I work with excelling and growing in their professional goals. I hope I can be an inspiration and help for you and your goals. Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a lesson!

Knowledgeable and listened to my needs

Mark helped me with a Fusion 360 problem that I was struggling with and offered an elegant solution that fit the requirement of the project. He also offered some helpful best practices tips.

Brian, 1 lesson with Mark

A wealth of experience

Mark knew Fusion 360 tips and tricks, but the biggest pro is his wealth of experience with actual products and toys. So it's not just about creating something in 3D but also understanding durability or kinematics and learning good techniques. Yes, I grew up in Chicago, and he lives in Chicago, but I promise I'm saying this without any Midwestern bias. The Chicago connection is just another pro.

A gifted teacher, communicator, and brainstorm partner.

A gifted teacher, communicator, and brainstorm partner. Mark's wealth of industry experience and elastic mindset encouraged me to think of unique new designs and fabrication methods while keeping practicality at the fore. I feel far more confident knowing he's in my corner. Knowledge is freeing!
