Get to know Lickel staff - Leslie Mark

Name: Leslie Mark

Hometown: Fort Lauderdale, Florida

College: Park University

Any kids, siblings, or pets? A cat named Bunny. She’s a longhaired Manx, so she has a little bunny puff tail, hence the name J

Perfect weekend agenda: Ample sofa time. Besides that, I like to go antiquing, work in my garden, and have friends over for dinner.

Dream vacation spot: Japan. Would love to visit Kyoto for the Cherry Blossom Festival.

Favorite project worked on: For my final project in school I did a design for the Savoy Hotel in downtown KC. I learned about the history of the hotel and worked those stories into my design – it was a blast. Now it’s under development by hotel 21C, and I can’t wait to see what they do with it.

Most watched show on Netflix: Currently: the Crown! It’s a good replacement for Downton Abbey fans.

Favorite musician/band: Hard to pick, but I always love the Rolling Stones. I got to see them when they were in town last year, and they’ve still got it.

Summer or winter? Fall. But if I have to pick: winter. I like the clothes better.

Favorite ice cream flavor: Corn ice cream from Glace. They only make it when corn is in season, during the summer. It tastes like Corn Pops, my favorite cereal.
