Courtney Mark
Principal, Light Directions MENA
Courtney has always been known as a creative and inspirational force. A creative and entrepreneurial lighting designer with over 25 years of international experience – including the United States, India, Hong Kong, Central America, and more than a decade in the Middle East – she brings a vision that dissolves the boundaries between art and engineering.
She believes light is more than illumination—it is atmosphere, memory, and the invisible architecture of mood and meaning. “There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a project you envision come to life,” she says, a sentiment that has guided her through decades of design leadership.
