Available to hire
I am a versatile and dependable professional with extensive experience across industrial automation, quality control, and photography. I bring strong technical problem-solving skills, a dedication to continuous improvement, and an ability to thrive both independently and within team environments.
I recently transitioned to professional photography with a focus on creative, client-centered visual work. Since September 2023, I have been building Timeless Memories by Mark, offering weddings, sports, events, and portraits, plus business photography, headshots, product, and food photography with a mobile studio setup and video recording/editing.
