I have had the pleasure of working with Mark Derho as he contributes his expertise to Resident.com as a freelance writer. Our collaboration has allowed me to witness firsthand his profound knowledge and exceptional skills in the tech and AI sectors.

As the Associate Publisher at Resident Media, I have closely worked with Mark on several projects and articles exploring the intersection of technology, AI, and the luxury world. His ability to blend technical insights with luxury storytelling has significantly enriched our publication's content. Additionally, we frequently discuss growth automation and content curation via artificial intelligence, an area to which Mark is deeply committed.

Mark's 25 years of experience in New York City's internet industry shine through in his work. His expertise spans:

Product and project management
Modern website design
Google-certified SEO/SEM/PPC marketing
Creative and technical copywriting
Business automation
Comprehensive content creation

Mark is unique in his ability to seamlessly integrate SEO into his writing. Unlike many authors, he is Google certified for organic search optimization and adeptly researches and implements keywords, meta tags, and meta descriptions within our system without requiring additional review. Over the course of our relationship, I have seen him adapt his style and expand his offerings to meet Resident.com's evolving needs.

On a personal level, Mark is a professional who continuously challenges himself to stay ahead of industry trends. His dedication to mastering new technologies and his commitment to excellence are truly commendable. He is not just a writer but a thought leader who brings innovative perspectives to every project.

"Mark built us a quality WordPress site, and delivered it on time and ready-to-go. He provided ample instruction for us to get started as first time WordPress users, to manage and update the site in-house. Mark is a fun and light-hearted person to work with, takes projects seriously, and has demonstrated a great deal of patience during some of the delays that were coming from our previous hosting company. So far, he has always been available for questions and follow-ups when needed, and I would recommend him without hesitation."

Illegal bike hustlers target tourists, threaten vendors in Central Park
ABC News Channel 7 NYC, by CeFaan Kim on October 30, 2017.

"We share twenty percent of our revenue with the city so they're stealing from tax payers like you and me. It's not fair. We estimate losing between 1.5 and 2 million dollars this year alone just to illegal bike vendors," Derho says.
