In this introductory episode of the podcast, I introduce myself - my personal, academic, and professional background - what the podcast will be about, and why I have moved to Ukraine to start a business.

In short, I have been passionate about this region my entire life and have studied and worked on it my entire academic and professional career. For this reason, I have moved to Ukraine to make whatever small contribution I can make to help the country recover.

In this podcast series, I will do my best to communicate life here in Ukraine, including all aspects from the macro to the micro level. Its necessary firstly to communicate the historical moment the world is going through, which is being decided here in Ukraine currently, while also relaying personal stories of incredible resilience of the Ukrainian people at the micro level. This helps give Western audiences a taste of what its like to live in wartime Ukraine while appreciating the importance of this historical moment.

Mark is a former Managing Director of Europe at FrontierView, where he specialized in Central & Eastern European Markets. His work has been published with Harvard Business Review, and interviewed on tv/in print by the BBC, Bloomberg, Forbes, Wall Street Journal, MSNBC, and Intellinews.

Earlier, Mark taught courses on counterterrorism to CIA/FBI agents at the US Army Combating Terrorism Center, and also taught a course on Investing in Emerging Markets at the London Institute of Banking & Finance (LIBF).

Mark holds an MA in Eastern European & Eurasian Studies from John Hopkins SAIS, and a BA in History and Theology from the University of Notre Dame. He is proficient in Russian.
