About Mark
Mark is a hard-working person who likes doing statistics for other people. His passion for the environment is as good as anyone you'll meet. Just give him the numbers and he'll do the rest. A little time spent on a project and he'll give it his all. He takes care in methodology and presentation of results, especially for non-specialists. He is happy working individually or in small teams and really likes to become an expert in each project in which he particiates. In his spare time, Mark enjoys running and cycling.
