About Mark

570 NewsRadio Kitchener's morning show co-anchor brings 23 years of journalism experience to his storytelling in the Waterloo Region. Mark began with 570 NEWS way back on the very first day of 2008 as the morning reporter. Remember that garbage truck fire on Columbia? Mark will never forget that one. His career has seen him shift as a reporter to anchor working in the Waterloo region then to Toronto, and back again. He's seen and covered everything across crime, fires, severe weather and significant moments like the New Hamburg flooding and the elation of the crowd when the Raptors won the NBA championship. Mark's mission is tell you about the lives we all live collectively as a community here in the Region. Mark lives with his wife Stacy and their two dogs, Freddie and Rosie, in Cambridge.
