He began piano lessons, continued with that focus in college, earned a degree in music, and has been producing, performing and creating musical experiences ever since.

Crystal and Tibetan bowls, tuning forks, shakers and rattles, sacred drums and flutes and vocal toning became an integral part of events designed to elevate and amplify vibrational frequency in the human energy system. He has conducted workshops, playshops, sound healing events, concerts and trainings on the use of sound for transformation. Mark's music has found its way cross-country and internationally. His first two albums, Between Mountains and Stars and Sundance In Moonlight, gained critical acclaim and were listed on Top Twenty playlists of Adult Contemporary, New Age and Acoustic Instrumental radio stations.
