Mark Peterson has been a prominent figure in the technology sector since his graduation from George Mason University in 1987. He began his career at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Research Extension (MITRE) where he integrated one of the first network connections to the Internet (ARPAnet). After a stint at MITRE, he joined Sun Microsystems as a Systems Engineer, leading significant federal projects for intelligence and defense agencies. Seeking to pursue his entrepreneurial ambitions, he founded ComPath in the early 1990s, pioneering the transformation of cable television plants into Internet broadband networks, growing the company to $18 million in seven years. Despite ComPath’s closure due to the 2000 market crash, Mark launched Digital Homes, focusing on smart home and cloud computing solutions.
Now, partnering with Daisy, Mark aims to provide integrated technical solutions to a wider audience, leveraging Daisy’s expertise in backend support and marketing alongside Digital Homes’ existing technical depth. Their collaboration looks to establish enduring customer relationships while meeting evolving technological needs.
In his spare time, Mark enjoys short track car racing and skiing.

Mark HintsaFebruary 18, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dillon did a thorough and professional update and review of our alarm system. Can't thank him enough. My highest recommendation for Dillon and Daisy home automation (formally Digital Home). Paul DeFeliceJuly 31, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Digital Homes did two new construction projects for me. They showed up when they said they would and were happy to quickly resolve and issues that might have come up. I am contacting them today to do another new home project for me. Dominic ZacconeNovember 4, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Digital Homes did a very nice job installing 10 TV’s various sound bars, outdoor audio, wiring for blinds, control 4 integration all in a timely and quality manner. Even better everyone you encounter from DH is nice to work with. Can be a high stress issue on a new build timeline and they handle it well. DaveOctober 24, 2018Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark and his staff installed a smart system, including audio, video, security and automatic blinds, in my home over 5 years ago. As with all electronics, things sometimes break. However, when they do, Mark is always responsive, upfront, honest and most importantly, his guys do great work in a timely fashion. I would highly recommend Digital Homes for your smart home and automation needs.Showing only 4-5 star reviewsVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
