About me

Mark Hines

Marketing Operations & Martech Developer

I design and build the systems marketing teams run on — over 20 years across marketing websites and digital ad operations, with a growing foundation in data analysis and reporting. I manage over 100 WordPress sites day to day, and I'm currently deepening my JavaScript, GTM, and analytics skills through real, self-directed projects — building the same kind of pipelines, dashboards, and tracking setups I'd be running for a team.
