Mark Vasto is a writer, journalist, restaurateur and charity director.
Mark Vasto studied journalism, computer studies, speech communication and Kappa Delta sorority at the University of Maryland, where he was a contributer to The Diamondback.

After becoming the Pete Best of the sporting apparel industry, Mark Vasto switched careers and worked as a sportswriter covering the Atlanta Braves and Falcons, and worked as a special projects manager for Turner Broadcasting, the Barbara Pyle Foundation and famed chimp scientist Jane Goodall. He crooned at the world famous Supper Club in Times Square, NYC before settling down in Kansas City, MO for some barbecue, a wife and a great kid.
There, Mark Vasto toiled as a city beat reporter for various newspapers in the Kansas City metropolitan area. After buying a Chrysler, he published the highly acclaimed and successful weekly newspaper, The Parkville Luminary and its lowly regarded and unsuccessful spinoff, The Kansas City Luminary.
