Meet Mark Williams, the Custom Home Builder Behind MDW
When it comes to custom home building here at MDW, Mark D. Williams is the man behind the magic. With a heart full of passion and an insatiable curiosity, Mark is more than just a builder—he's a visionary, a storyteller, and a champion of collaboration. Let's take a closer look at the man behind the homes (and the podcast mic).
Loving the Process
For Mark, building homes is like unwrapping presents on Christmas morning. From the very first brainstorming session to the grand reveal, he loves every part of the custom home-building experience. As someone who thrives on creativity and teamwork, Mark loves the opportunity to bring ideas to life alongside his clients and design team in the building journey. Every project is a new adventure waiting to unfold, and as a lifelong optimist, Mark loves looking ahead to all a project can be!
The Curious Builder Podcast
When he's not doing site visits or working with his clients and talented trade partners, you'll likely find Mark behind the microphone of The Curious Builder Podcast- one of his favorite endeavors! Here, he invites listeners into the world of building industry professionals, sharing their journeys, successes, and valuable insights. With a genuine passion for lifting others up, Mark finds joy in spotlighting the stories of fellow entrepreneurs and fostering connections within the community. He also pushes his guests to share a few tips and tricks everyone can learn from. Each episode is a chance to learn, grow, and be inspired!
Family, Fun, and Adventure
Away from the construction site, Mark's greatest joy lies in spending time with his family. Whether they're playing games, exploring the great outdoors (skiing and sledding in the winter, biking and soccer in the summer), or enjoying movie nights, family time is sacred. And when he's not busy being a dad, (or telling one of his best dad jokes) Mark indulges his love for adventure, from ultra running to early morning bike rides and impromptu tennis matches. They say to work hard and play hard, and Mark manages to succeed at both!
Getting to Know Mark
When it comes to favorites, all food is ago for Mark, except for hot dogs and cheesecake- which he calls an abomination because of his love of CHEESE! Thanks to his daughter's love for Taylor Swift, Mark has become something of a Swftie himself, listening to his favorite album, "Folklore”, on quiet mornings. As for his downtime entertainment, podcasts and audiobooks keep his curiosity alive and kicking. He chooses podcasts for weekdays and audiobooks on the weekends to keep up with it all.
