Mark is a coding enthusiast and manager at Bouvet. Over the last 15 years he has worked with exotic and little known technologies such as PROIV, evolutionary dead ends like PowerBuilder, and the widely used behemoth that is Java. After some years in the wilderness Mark has recently rediscovered the joy of coding. He now spends his evenings experimenting with JavaScript, Robotics and the Internet of Things, much to the chagrin (and occasional delight) of his wife and two children. He also helps arrange various events for the developer community in his adopted hometown of Oslo, Norway.
