Mark has 15 years of experience advising middle-market companies on mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and financings. He has completed transactions for entrepreneurs, private equity sponsors and public companies across a broad range of industries.

Prior to co-founding Northborne, Mark was a Managing Director at Cowen, where he led the Healthcare Services effort, and a Principal at Greene Holcomb Fisher. He began his career practicing M&A law at Kirkland & Ellis, advising private equity clients on complex corporate transactions.

Fun fact: Mark is passionate about golf, though remains very average in his abilities. He’s played for 35+ years but still struggles with those 3 foot putts and has yet to find a coach who can fix his slice. If he’s not working or with his family, he’s most likely on the course or on the way to one.
