I’m Mark, a freelance writer, journalist, and editor. I am currently the Arts, Culture, & Community Editor for South Seattle Emerald.

I typically write about Seattle news, restaurants, worker’s rights, and LGBTQIA2S+ issues. I was the interim guest editor for Eater Seattle in fall 2021. My work has appeared in Vice, Mashable, South Seattle Emerald, The Seattle Times, BuzzFeed, The Stranger Slog, and more.

Mark brings more than a strong command of vocabulary and grammar to his writing. His ability to distill complex topics into approachable, accessible language and his deep sense of empathy serve him well in his craft. Mark is a joy both to edit and read.

Mark is such a pleasure to work with. Not only is he a prolific writer who continues to grow and learn, he is also an invested and compassionate community member. I was continually impressed with his ability to connect with, interview, and represent diverse people from different communities. Mark’s dedication and heart are just wonderful.
