Mark has served on our board of directors since 2016. 

He moved to Southeast Idaho as a child in 1964, graduating from Bonneville High in 1971. He studied for two years at the University of Guam and obtained his B.S. degree in conservation and M.S. in zoology from Idaho State University. 

Except for three years with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Mark has spent his career studying, managing, and conserving fish and wildlife in Idaho. He has worked for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes, and for the Idaho Department of Fish and Game. He retired as regional supervisor for the latter. 

Mark brings to his board service a deep knowledge and love of place, thoughtful leadership, and a calm, effective approach to problem-solving.
