## Meet Mark Ponce: Our New Warehouse Manager
We're excited to introduce Mark Ponce, who recently joined Tangram as our Warehouse Manager. Mark brings extensive experience from his previous role as Shipping and Receiving Manager at a furniture manufacturing company, making him a perfect fit for our operations team.
### Getting to Know Mark
Originally from Cerritos, California, Mark is someone who embraces adventure both in and out of the workplace. When he's not managing warehouse operations, you might find him snorkeling in exotic locations around the world. His adventurous spirit extends to his palate too – he's tried some of the most unique cuisines imaginable, including blowfish.
We asked Mark a few questions to help our team and clients get to know him better:
**What are you most excited about in your new role?** "I'm looking forward to building new relationships, taking on fresh challenges, and achieving our operational goals together," Mark shares.
**If you were stranded on an island, what three items would you want?** Mark's practical approach shines through: "A Rambo knife with all the gadgets, swim goggles, and a cast iron skillet." Clearly, he's prepared for any situation.
**What do you hope to bring to the Tangram team?** "A fresh perspective, renewed energy, and a never-say-never attitude," he explains.
### A Strong Addition to Our Team
Mark's proactive mindset and extensive experience in furniture logistics make him an invaluable addition to our operations. His background in manufacturing and production gives him unique insights into the complexities of furniture handling and distribution – knowledge that directly benefits our commercial design projects.
In an industry where timing and precision matter, having someone with Mark's expertise ensures our warehouse operations continue to support our design teams and clients effectively.
When asked about throwing his ideal party, Mark's answer revealed his values: he'd honor "the people who set me on my path," with Muhammad Ali as the guest of honor. This speaks to his appreciation for mentorship and excellence – qualities that align perfectly with Tangram's culture.
### Welcome to the Team
