From Technology Pioneer to Smart Home Innovator

He played a pivotal role in the development of the Internet, working with an experimental network called Arpanet and installing one of the first Internet routers at MITRE. His entrepreneurial drive later led him to found ComPath, a company dedicated to digitizing cable systems to distribute Internet access to the public.
In 2004, Mark launched Digital Homes, a business built on the high-speed Internet infrastructure he helped pioneer, with a vision to deliver advanced digital solutions to homeowners. “My passion has always been finding ways to integrate technology to improve everyday life,” Mark shares. “The custom integration industry allows me to bring that passion directly into people’s homes.”
