Elevate Your Life with Expert Coaching & Positive Leadership

Hi, I’m Mark De’Mar, a certified life and business coach passionate about helping people create meaningful change. My coaching journey began after more than two decades in the hospitality industry, where I worked my way up from washing dishes at 14 to becoming a Director of Operations for a national brand. Through that experience, I learned that when you truly invest in people, both individuals and businesses can achieve incredible success.

At Three Chords Coaching, I blend my industry experience with accredited coaching techniques to support individuals and teams in unlocking their full potential. My coaching is built on three core principles: believing in yourself, having the courage to step outside your comfort zone, and designing the life and career you truly want.

I take a holistic approach, integrating traditional coaching with elements like movement, nature, and mindfulness to create lasting personal and professional growth. As a member of the Association of Coaches, I’m committed to providing a supportive, realistic, and results-driven coaching experience. My goal is to help you navigate challenges, gain clarity, build accountability, and celebrate every win along the way.

Whether you’re looking for personal development, career progression, or business growth, I’d love to work with you on your journey to success. Let’s take the first step together!

What makes me a Hospitality Specialist and

business success coach.

With over two decades in the hospitality industry, I started my journey at 14 as a dishwasher and worked my way up to Director of Operations for a national brand. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of every aspect of hospitality, from frontline service to executive leadership.

What I’ve learned throughout my career is that hospitality isn’t just about operations—it’s about people. Success in this industry comes from investing in, developing, and empowering the teams that bring hospitality to life. That’s where my focus lies. I’m passionate about leadership, team development, and creating cultures where people thrive because when people succeed, businesses do too.

Now, as a certified life and business coach, I bring that same people-first mindset to my coaching. Whether working with individuals or teams, my goal is to help unlock potential, drive meaningful growth, and create lasting success.
