Mark enjoys discovering what lies beyond the obvious in datasets, picking out insightful information and using it to inform strategic thinking for clients.

Being considerate of others is something really important to me, becoming a source of ironic agony as I naturally block everyone’s view at concerts. I’m most passionate about sports (if you can kick it, bounce it, or drive it), and if I ever say no to adding hot sauce – send help. 

Social justice and equality are important to me. I am eager to educate myself about issues and where possible support the different causes I feel strongly about. Outside of work, I love sport – both playing and watching. Coming from India, I am very predictably a cricket buff! Besides sport, I like to get my guitar out and strum a few songs.

Life is very full (and full on) with little ones but it’s where I feel most fulfilled. Keeping fit and listening to podcasts help me ‘do me’ plus seeing and making new friends in my new city.

Making sure my loved ones and I are happy, healthy, and well taken care of is one of my top priorities in life. I love expressing my creativity through cooking and baking, but when I’m not in the kitchen you can find me roller skating with my friends, reading a good novel, tending to my many houseplants, or hiking in one of our local Bay Area Redwood parks with my dog.

I am a life-long learner and am always trying to grow, both as a creator and as a person. In my spare time I like to play video games, attend concerts, support the Los Angeles Dodgers and Angel City FC, and watch as many movies and shows as I possibly can.

Living my life with love and compassion is my top priority. I really enjoy connecting with the outside world, whether it’s meeting new people or exploring new places with my loved ones (I’m a huge fan of the national parks!).

Seeing my kids happy and thriving is imperative to me, so I spend most of my free time ferrying them around to various activities. I enjoy good times with friends and am partial to an Aperol Spritz, followed by good food and wine.

Honesty and having ‘me time’ are important to me. In my free time I enjoy playing computer games and pool.

My family and friends are my priority, so spending quality time together outside of work is essential to me. I also love cooking, hiking and going on camping trips in our new van.

At the top of my priority list is setting a good example for my children. A sense of humor combined with integrity, hard work and compassion for others are the qualities I do my best to embody every day – in hopes they will do the same. A good spy novel is a favorite escape.

I’m passionate about travelling and exploring new places. Learning new cultures and histories is something that I really enjoy and make me happy.  When I’m not at work, I like to socialize and connect with my family and friends.

Continuously learning drives me. If I woke up tomorrow and found myself independently wealthy, I would become a permanent student – Science, History, Literature, Language, Art… I would dive into it all. I live in Colorado, so you can usually find me on a mountain trail, getting dirty and loving every minute of it.

What’s important to me is making sure I (and my loved ones) stay healthy and balanced. I love to stay active through running, biking, hiking, swimming, and yoga, as well as connecting with my creativity and the earth through travel, gardening, bee keeping, photography and more.

I enjoy travelling to new places and am at my happiest when high in the mountains or with sand between my toes. My simple pleasures in life include country walks, Greek food, a strong cosmopolitan and laughing until it hurts.

I like to make a difference; drawing on my own experiences to have meaningful conversations about a myriad of topics. Art, food, wine, and sports are passions of mine. And of course my two daughters, whose ever-changing needs and personalities are endlessly exasperating!

The last few years have made me realise the importance of making time for the things that truly matter. That means spending time with my loved ones and making the most of what London has to offer by enjoying as many exhibitions, performances and walks as I can!

Number one for me is family, although my boys are now pretty independent and it’s a bit of a wrench to find myself with a newly empty nest! The freedom and flexibility to ride my bike and travel more does make up for it a bit.

I have a passion for continual learning through new experiences. From attempting a new cuisine to moving to a new country, I feel the best way to grow is to put yourself in situations you haven’t had opportunity to before.

Embracing and supporting diverse, tolerant and giving communities, and having a keen sense of curiosity are important to me. My passions outside of work include the visual arts (including making my own mixed media pieces), traveling, nature, music of all kinds – from Handel to iLe – and baking.
