Supervisor of Sequencing

Mark's entrepreneurial spirit ignited at a young age when he began selling candy out of his middle school trumpet case, gaining valuable insights into marketing and sales. Mark's love for business didn't stop there; he also became a successful seller on eBay, further developing his entrepreneurial skills. Despite these early ventures, Mark pursued a different academic path, obtaining degrees in Microbiology and Chemistry, followed by an MBA. 

In 2006, a pivotal moment arrived when Mark and his wife, Kathy, purchased a cloth diaper service.  With their determination, they rapidly expanded their customer base.  What started as them outsourcing the diaper cleaning soon evolved into a dedicated in-house washing facility.

By 2013, Mark made the decision to leave his role as a QC Manager at a pharmaceutical company to embark on a new adventure. This transition led them to expand into the commercial laundry cleaning space, allowing them to successfully serve a diverse range of clients. In 2017, they introduced residential laundry services and acquired their own On-Premises Laundry (OPL) facility. Today, they provide cloth diaper, residential, and commercial laundry services to hundreds of satisfied customers in the Greater St. Louis Area.

Beyond his entrepreneurial journey, Mark shares his success and achievements with his wife Kathy, and their three children who are a constant source of motivation and support.  In their spare time, their family enjoys hiking, traveling, and savoring life to the fullest.
