Mark is an Affiliate Research Fellow at New York University’s Information Law Institute, where he writes about how the regulation of information intersects with topics in moral philosophy and private law theory.

Mark is currently interested in the ancillary effects of privacy law, including how privacy law facilitates or undermines trust in commercial and interpersonal relationships, how privacy law facilitates the construction of training data for AI development, and how privacy rights support or undermine collective governance of data in the information economy.

Starting July 2025, Mark will be an Assistant Professor of Law at Seattle University where he will be affiliated with the Technology, Innovation, Law, and Ethics (TILE) Program.

Mark’s previous work has been published or is forthcoming in the North Carolina Law Review, Iowa Law Review, U.C. Davis Law Review, and others.
