Celebrating is in our DNA at TPN, and this month we're marking the second work anniversary of COO Mark Johnson, who came to us when we merged with Evia in 2023. Anniversaries put people in a reflective mood, so we asked Mark to answer a few questions:
The best part of my job at TPN?
"Getting the chance to drive company strategy around our sales and servicing of technology for our customers."
The worst part?
"My distance from the lines of business outside of event technology. We are an incredible production agency, and there is so much that I have to learn about that side of the business. In our jobs, we are constantly prioritizing our focus, and sometimes we miss out on very cool things as a result. It’s a good problem to have."
My first live event?
"I was attending a play with my mom and sister and the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis, MN. It was important to my mom that I be exposed to some culture other than that of the small mining community where I grew up. I remember being absolutely mesmerized by the scale of the place. It was unlike anything I had ever seen as a small-town kid from the far northern reaches of my state, and it impacted me greatly."
Passions outside of work?
"When I am not working, I spend my time engaged in the lives of my daughters. Much to my dismay, they are already 11 and 13 years old and I don’t want to miss a moment. Being a girl dad is the absolute best thing ever."
