Who is
Mark Armstrong?
"To hit the magical 0.300, you must fail 7 out of the 10 times."
Mark Armstrong is a tax professional born and raised in Calgary. After spending 15 years in the restaurant industry, he decided it was time for a change. Having always enjoyed math and numbers, accounting was the logical choice. He started taking courses with Athabasca before landing a job at the best accounting firm in the city, Pinnacle. Working at Pinnacle has allowed him to get hands on experience while affording him the time and opportunity to continue his studies.
When not working or studying, Mark enjoys playing volleyball on the office volleyball team, going to the Stampeders game where he’s had season tickets for the past 12 years, or hanging out with his cat, Charlie Alpha Tango. Mark is a lover of all thing’s trivia, feline, and sports.
