Mark's Story
Life
I finally paid for an account with classmates.com. I guess I was motivated by the fact that we have a 20 year reunion. Damn, I'm old. Anyway, I think I can summarize my life in a few sentences. After Bourgade, I went to Grand Canyon College for 1.5 years with Robert and Dan. I then moved to Tucson where I finished with a degree in Business and MIS from UofA. I worked for a small company in Phoenix for a couple of years and then I was inpired to move to Prague, Czech Republic to start a business.

cceed at starting a business but I eventually met my wife (she is Czech) and found a job with Honeywell. We lived in Prague for 5 years (married in 1998) and returned to Phoenix in 2000. We had our daughter, Isabella, who is now 7 years old. I went back to school in 2003 and finished my MBA in 2005 at Thunderbird. I have lived and worked in Europe for 7 years between 1995 and now (Prague mostly but also Amsterdam and Glasgow). I am still with Honeywell as the IT Director for our business in Europe, Middle East and Africa. We returned to Prague last summer and I'm not sure how long we will stay. I doubt that I'll make the reunion but I wish I could join the fun. Best to all.
