Mark Auger
Mark Auger’s path to becoming a developer was anything but conventional. Before founding Othrys Enterprises, Mark was an award-winning opera singer, performing at Lincoln Center, the Vatican, and across Europe. His work on the world’s greatest stages demanded discipline, attention to detail, and emotional presence.

A catastrophic knee injury, followed by ten surgeries, forced Mark to pivot away from the stage and into a new chapter. During this time of transition, Mark's interest in development began to take shape. A drive through the North Georgia mountains sparked a vision: what if he could design homes that reflected the same intentionality and presence he once brought to the stage? He sold his city properties, built two cabins in Blue Ridge, and saw both nearly double in value. With the proceeds, he acquired 82 acres of pristine mountain land that would become Pinhoti Summit.

Today, Mark leads Othrys as both a developer and a steward. He combines the sensibility of an artist, the precision of a craftsman, and the foresight of a long-term investor. His homes are not just structures—they’re statements, designed to stand the test of time, grow from the land, and inspire those who live in them.
