Mark Pruce
Ithaca, NY--
After ten years of managing my successful design and web shop, I had built many great products
and client relationships but I was ready for a change. I spent 15 inspiring months as Campaign
Manager of a Congressional Campaign in NY’s 23rd district, managing staff, raising over $500K,
analyzing data, and implementing messaging and strategy. I’m ready for my next challenge.
