Hi, I'm Mark!
Find out a little more...
Hi there, I’m Mark Mireles—a digital marketing guru, full-stack developer, and a relentless pursuer of innovation in all things web and tech. Over the past 15+ years, I’ve transformed traditional businesses into digital powerhouses, mastering the delicate art of making technical jargon exciting (or at least bearable). When I’m not busy turning complex strategies into ROI-driven successes at NRM, I’m likely knee-deep in AI-driven content, automation, or tweaking websites until they sparkle in Google’s eyes.
But hold on a second—why is my professional portfolio called “Pansoundz”? Great question. While I’ve spent decades fine-tuning digital platforms, I’ve simultaneously spent the last 30 years mastering an entirely different platform—the steel drums, also lovingly known as steel pans. Yep, I’ve been tapping away melodies on metallic bowls, bringing tropical vibes to audiences far and wide. So, think of Pansoundz as the perfect harmony between my passion for music and my love for all things digital. After all, whether it’s music or marketing, I’m always aiming to hit just the right note.
I’m naturally curious, always exploring new ways to blend technology, creativity, and storytelling into engaging digital experiences. Outside the professional realm, you’ll find me composing smooth Steel Pan tracks in my home studio, piloting drones for epic cinematic footage, or quietly observing the fascinating chaos of human behavior—often inspiring new ideas for my ongoing epic fantasy novel, FreEnadin.
With over 15 years of professional experience in digital marketing, full-stack development, and creative strategy, I’ve transformed traditional businesses into digitally-powered success stories. At NRM, I’ve led projects boosting online lead generation by over 75%, streamlined CRM processes, and launched content that reached tens of thousands globally. I thrive on turning big ideas into practical, impactful solutions.
I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Interactive Web and Multimedia from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh (2018), as well as a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Music Theory and Composition from Lamar University (1998). My educational background uniquely combines technical expertise with creative insight, fueling my passion for innovative digital storytelling.
Proven expertise in developing and executing comprehensive, ROI-driven digital strategies, significantly enhancing growth and brand visibility.
Advanced proficiency in leveraging AI-driven platforms like ChatGPT, Midjourney, and automation tools (Zapier, make.com) to optimize digital content production and streamline business processes.
Extensive experience in WordPress, custom CMS, JavaScript, Python, Django, React and multimedia production (video, animation, voiceovers), delivering engaging, high-performance digital experiences.
When I’m not busy crafting digital experiences, you’ll find me immersed in a variety of creative passions. I’m currently deep into writing an epic fantasy novel called FreEnadin, with 16 chapters down and on track to finish by the year’s end. I also love piloting drones to capture cinematic aerial footage, bringing stunning visuals to life—and yes, those videos will soon grace my portfolio!

I have a passion for piloting drones and capturing stunning cinematic footage from breathtaking perspectives. There’s something incredibly satisfying about soaring above familiar landscapes and transforming ordinary views into cinematic masterpieces. I’ll be adding some of my favorite aerial videos to my portfolio soon, so keep an eye out—you won’t want to miss these epic shots!
I’m currently working on an epic fantasy novel titled FreEnadin, an immersive journey into a richly crafted world full of adventure, magic, and intrigue. I’m 16 chapters in and expect to complete the manuscript by the end of this year. Writing this book has been a thrilling challenge, allowing me to combine my passion for storytelling, creativity, and meticulous world-building into one exciting project. Stay tuned—I can’t wait to share it with you!
I genuinely love meeting new people—there’s something endlessly fascinating about human nature. Observing and interacting with others is like unraveling an intriguing mystery; people are wonderfully complex, unpredictable, and always interesting. Whether I’m out in the world or quietly people-watching, I find endless inspiration in the quirky, beautiful chaos that makes us all uniquely human.
In my downtime, you’ll usually find me in my personal home recording studio, laying down smooth Steel Pan melodies. Musicians from around the globe regularly send me their tracks, trusting me to sprinkle in that warm, tropical Steel Pan vibe that brings their music to life. Collaborating internationally and blending diverse musical styles right from my own creative sanctuary never gets old—there’s just something special about crafting music from the comfort of home.
