“If I can do it, anyone can. I wasn't the smartest student, and when I started working in television, I didn’t always fit in with the people I was around, but no one out-worked me and I positioned myself to become a valuable asset to any company I worked for.”
In this episode we cover:
- How Mark found his passion in broadcast journalism after originally wanting to be a doctor.
