    Early Life

    On March 11, 1980, Mark Rober was born in Orange County, California. Ever since he was young, Mark has always shown interest in the field of engineering.

    One of the brilliant man’s first inventions was a set of goggles that kept tears from forming while cutting onions. He applied his enthusiasm and talent to his studies.

    He went to Brigham Young University and earned a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering. Later on, he attended the University of California for his master’s degree.

    In 2004, Mark was hired at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La CaƱada Flintridge, Canada. There, he worked on a number of notable missions, including Mars Science Laboratory, GRAIL, AMT, and SMAP.

    In 2015, he was employed by Apple Inc as a product designer. He was part of their Special Projects Group, which created patents for virtual reality for self-driving cars but left his position in 2020.

    YouTube Career

    While he was still at NASA, Mark Rober started uploading his personal YouTube channel. In 2011, he published his first video and the rest is history! As an engineer, his content promotes science, typically a boring topic for the average person but he showcases it in a creative way.

    His first video depicts a Halloween costume in which two iPads were used to provide the impression of seeing through the wearer’s body. It quickly became a hit. His most popular video today is titled ‘SKIN A WATERMELON party trick’.

    With his unique content ideas, his channel gradually received more recognition over the years. With his influence, he also worked with fellow content creator MrBeast for the environmental efforts called #TeamTrees and #TeamSeas. Now, Mark’s channel has over 21.5 million subscribers.
