Mark King Biography
As a child, Mark King lived in Annapolis, Maryland, where his father was a leadership instructor at the Naval Academy and later a captain of a nuclear submarine. Mark moved to Bainbridge Island, a small community just a ferry ride from Seattle. He was eight when his family moved across the world. Mark spent his school years experimenting with electronics, building an electric car, earning the Eagle Scout honor, and earning his first patent before he turned 18.
He sold his invention, which he called an “organoleptic analysis machine”, to General Mills for the purpose of testing the granola bar preservatives’ life spans after high school while studying machining at Bellingham Technical College. Trayvax Enterprises was the first company Mark launched from the funds earned from that experience. Mark gave a TEDx talk on taking on big projects during the company’s genesis in the New York Times
Trayvax Enterprises now employs 31 people and sells upwards of 90,000 products globally. In Mark King’s view, it’s essential to create an entrepreneurial culture that is centered on personal accountability and lean management, which enables a portion of profits to go towards solving global water challenges.
