Born and raised in central Ohio, Mark Dandrea understands what life is like here. He knows about the interesting mix of urban/suburban /rural neighborhoods, the plethora of restaurants, the school systems, the Zone 5 gardening opportunities, the service-based economy, the many leisure-time activities, the politics, and, of course, the sports. A dyed-in-the-wool Buckeye fan, he bleeds (as they say) scarlet and gray. One of his fondest childhood memories is of the 1968 championship football team, and he proudly cheered the Buckeyes on to their title quest in 2002.

His enthusiasm for all things Ohio State extends to his enthusiasm for central Ohio as a place to live. "My youth was idyllic," he says, "the perfect childhood. I wish everybody could have the same sort of life I did." To Mark, "the perfect childhood" means a warm, loving family; a household full of life and laughter; and a house in a neighborhood of friendly people. With his wife and children, Mark has recaptured the joy of his own upbringing. With his clients, Mark Dandrea is dedicated to helping them achieve their own ideals.

Mark is also a firm believer in working hard. Whether it's helping out at his children's school, volunteering for church activities, or managing his business, Mark Dandrea is committed before, during, and after to doing the best possible job. He prepares thoroughly, performs diligently, and then follows up to ensure satisfactory results.

"If it's important to the people I love, it's important
to me."

Mark's wife, Erin, and daughter, Arden, are avid horsewomen. Though Mark himself is "allergic to everything in the barn," he loves spending time with Erin and Arden and their horses.

Mark's son, Garrett, shares his father's love of sports. Mark played professional-quality golf in his early twenties-briefly considering it as a career-and attended the first-ever Memorial Tournament. Now, Mark takes Garrett golfing with him whenever he can. Father and son also enjoy tossing a football around in the backyard, and Garrett helps Mark restore his treasured vintage automobiles.

"Doing what I love with people who matter most to me is my idea of 'The Good Life.'"

"What I love about my job is helping people to
get what they want-making the numbers work, finding the answers, getting them where they want to be."

Mark's work philosophy centers around his facination with numbers. As Mark says, "Numbers don't lie. I love working through the figures, creating charts and making the calculations that let me help my clients accomplish their goals." Mark has a sincere desire to help his clients -on their terms. A recent client said, "Mark's first question to us was, 'What do YOU want to get out of this?' Nobody had ever asked us that before!"
