With a focus on science and technology, he has written about laser satellites, self-driving vehicles, AI body scanners and monkey-powered robots for outlets including Wired, The Guardian, The Economist, The Sunday Times, Tech Crunch and more.

Mark was first acquainted with the key players in this story when Stockton Rush, the former CEO and founder of OceanGate (who died in the implosion), invited him on a dive in one of his prototype submarines in 2015. Almost a decade later, his Wired feature on the OceanGate tragedy became the site's most-read article, establishing Mark as the go-to expert on the topic, leading to numerous media interviews and podcast appearances.
