It was at the end of the day and my co-speaker was muttering comments about how she shouldn\u2019t have to present with some new girl. I was feeling kind of deflated, but Mark was in the audience cheering me on. He stayed to walk back with me and let me know I did well (while also good heartedly making fun of how much extra time I spent after the session answering questions).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It was at that moment I knew that I had a true friend in Mark Irvine. Up until that point we were work colleagues and, due entirely to my personality, occasional rivals. Yet when I was alone, and needed someone in my corner, Mark was there. <\/p>\n<p>Mark would always be there.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" alt=\"Mark Irvine Penguins\" class=\"wp-image-440263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins.jpg.webp 960w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins-451x338.jpg.webp 451w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins-800x600.jpg.webp 800w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins-151x113.jpg.webp 151w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins-768x576.jpg.webp 768w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" src=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins.jpg.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Mark Irvine Penguins\" class=\"wp-image-440263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins.jpg.webp 960w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins-451x338.jpg.webp 451w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins-800x600.jpg.webp 800w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins-151x113.jpg.webp 151w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/mark-irvine-penguins-768x576.jpg.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>There really was nothing like having Mark Irvine in your corner<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>I would be remiss if I didn\u2019t talk about how good of an ally Mark was. He made a point to show up for women and offer opportunities for growth that he could have very easily kept for himself. He would claim \u201cbut then I\u2019d have to do it\u201d (if you knew Mark, you can hear that voice playfully egging on the person to just do the thing). At least 20 women (including myself) got to explore thought leadership thanks to Mark.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to 2018. We both had established ourselves as powerhouses in our own rights, and we were invited to SMX Munich. I remember Mark making fun of me for making the rookie mistake of staying at the conference hotel instead of staying in the city. <\/p>\n<p>This was a pattern with us. I\u2019d stay at the cheaper\/less exciting spot, and Mark would laugh at me going out of my way to save money for a company. He likely was right (especially given my track record of shady locations and getting locked out \u2013 all of which he was there to help me out of).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>During that Munich trip we talked a lot about what we both wanted and why we wanted it. I remember staying up till 2 a.m. drinking Pilsners with him at his hotel. I don\u2019t remember what we talked about, just that it was one of the happiest conversations I\u2019ve ever had. <\/p>\n<p>We also walked around the Olympic stadium discussing how we were balancing work travel (which was fun), with being good lovelies. Bobby was never far from Mark\u2019s mind or heart when he traveled and being a safe space for each other to talk through whether we were being kind to our partners was a true treasure.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" alt=\"Smx Munich Group\" class=\"wp-image-440245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group.jpg.webp 960w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group-451x338.jpg.webp 451w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group-800x600.jpg.webp 800w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group-151x113.jpg.webp 151w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group-768x576.jpg.webp 768w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" src=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group.jpg.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Smx Munich Group\" class=\"wp-image-440245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group.jpg.webp 960w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group-451x338.jpg.webp 451w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group-800x600.jpg.webp 800w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group-151x113.jpg.webp 151w,https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/wp-content\/seloads\/2024\/05\/smx-munich-group-768x576.jpg.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Mark, Purna Virji, Joe Martinez, and I giggling our way across Munich while also sharing insights on PPC<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>I think what made that trip so memorable was it felt like I had finally become worthy enough to sit with Mark as an equal. To laugh at the world with him. There was so much sadness and stress, and he had this uncanny ability to just shut out the negative and laugh. A big mechanic of our friendship was knowing what was going on and giggling to ourselves about how \u201cX\u201d was actually a red herring, or that \u201cY\u201d was setting up for ABC.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mark would often tell me to \u201cdo less\u201d and at the time it felt like a silly thing to focus on. Yet it came from a place of love. <\/p>\n<p>Mark\u2019s default personality was to do so much for everyone and to let others take advantage of his giving personality. Thinking back on the years we worked together (and even after we both went on to do other things), almost every decision he made was to ensure others could enjoy a great time\/get the limelight.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He encouraged me to own my power in every way, and I know I\u2019m a better professional and person because I knew him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After the pandemic when we both had moved on from the ad tech company that brought us together we would make a point to catch up at conferences. Mark started sitting up front with me, and I\u2019d sit in the back with him. We\u2019d gossip about what was going on in PPC, in life, and whether the session was actually good. He absolutely brought out the snark in me.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll miss my conference buddy. I\u2019ll miss my safe snark space. I\u2019ll miss the sense of home Mark represented when we traveled abroad (and the meals we\u2019d treat each other to because they legitimately were work expenses).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll miss you, Mark, but I know you have an eternity of pumpkin spice lattes and Big Brother: Heaven Edditon to enjoy.
