Biography

Mark received his MS in International Agricultural Development and his PhD in agronomy at UC Davis. He has worked as an agronomist for the University of California since 2013, first as a UCCE Agronomy Advisor, and more recently as Associate Professor of Cooperative Extension and CE Specialist in Grain Cropping Systems at UC Davis. His work strives to solve practical problems, produce outcomes that inform both production and environmental concerns, and communicate these outcomes in farmer-accessible formats as well as to the broader scientific community.
