Mark's love of craft beer began with his first brewery visit while in college - Arrowhead Brewing Company in Pennsylvania.  With that first sip of their Red Feather Pale Ale, his life would change.  It had such great flavor and aroma, both characteristics that other beers didn't have at the time.

After graduating from Shippensburg University with a Bachelors Degree in Geo-Environmental Studies, Mark worked for 15 years in his family's landscaping business, Tilley's Nursery in Coopersburg, Pennsylvania.  He managed crews, materials and installations, all the while home brewing styles of beer that he couldn't find on shelves, visiting many more breweries in his free time, and dreaming about a career in the craft brewing industry.  Finally in 2011, he and his wife (then girlfriend), Suzanne, both decided to make career changes and he took the leap to professional brewing
