Mark was born and raised in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island (PEI). Following High School, he attended the University of Prince Edward Island and enrolled as an Armour Officer within the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF).
During his 16 years with the CAF he was employed as a Reconnaissance Troop Leader, Tank Troop Leader, Assistant to the Adjutant, Adjutant, Operations Officer, Instructor, Course Officer, National Standards Representative, Military Career Counsellor and finally as a Recruiting Detachment Commander.
Following the birth of his son, Mark and his wife decided that the family had relocated enough (five times) and that it was time to put down some roots. This ultimately led to the purchasing of five Instant Imprints Franchises and the family’s subsequent relocation back to Halifax during the summer of 2022.
