Mark served as an Attorney Special Master for the Miami-Dade Value Adjustment Board for ten years, showcasing his capability to represent clients before various state, county, and city agencies. His leadership roles in national Hispanic organizations, including serving as National President and Secretary of the Hispanic National Bar Association (HNBA), reflect his dedication to advocacy and community service.
Beyond his professional endeavors, Mark actively engages with his local community as a member of the Greater Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce, a Certified Business Mentor with Space Coast SCORE, and a board member for St. Thomas University Law School and the Hispanic National Bar Legal Education Fund.

In January 2011, Mark suffered a seizure that led to a diagnosis of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and required two emergency surgeries at Baptist Hospital: a craniotomy to remove a large meningioma from his frontal lobe and cyber-knife surgery to excise another meningioma from the olfactory cavity. His recovery was remarkable, surpassing medical expectations. However, in 2014, a fall from his roof while trimming a palm tree left him paralyzed from the neck down. At “The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis,” he was told he would likely never walk again. With intense therapy and acupuncture, supported by his wife, Mark defied the odds and walked from his hospital bed to his room, earning the praise of neurosurgeons as a miracle. Over the next two years, he regained mobility but was ultimately classified as Totally and Permanently Disabled. After battling opioid addiction for pain management, he successfully transitioned to alternative medications, which he now takes daily.
