As an HPA with the Mark Group, I helped homeowners understand and identify strategic solutions to solve various issues of health, safety, comfort, and finances in the biggest investment of their lives...a home. Building on my experience in the Energy Efficiency and Green Building sectors and pulling from my entrepreneurial skill set as an independent business owner, I rose quickly to become one of the most successful HPA's in the company's history. Sadly, Mark Group USA had to shut its doors at the end of 2014 due to financial troubles with its UK parent. However, when one door closes others tend to open and I'm looking forward to what opportunities will emerge in the future!
