Maroussia researches AI governance.
Her work focuses on AI regulation, power imbalances in the AI ecosystem, and market concentration in the AI industry. She is interested in technical standards to bridge the gap between principles and implementation, tech workers as the industry’s conscience, and the respective roles of public and private actors in the governance ecosystem. At Berkman Klein, she co-led the AI Governance working group with Tom Zick and Shira Gur Arieh from 2020 to 2025. She is an Assistant Professor of Law & AI at Queen’s University, a member of the Indigenous-led Abundant Intelligences project and a Senior Fellow at the Centre for International Governance Innovation.
She earned her SJD at Harvard Law School where she was also a Lecturer, co-teaching AI governance with Martha Minow, as well as a Graduate Student Affiliate and a Fellow at the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs. Recent work includes Analog Privilege, Smoke and Mirrors? AI Regulation and Corporate Power, and Full-Stack AI Regulation. Her scholarship has been published in the NYU Journal of Legislation and Public Policy, among other publications, and in conference proceedings including NeurIPS. She has also written for The Guardian, specialized outlets like Tech Policy Press, and Canadian media such as the Toronto Star and La Presse. Maroussia previously worked for Quebec’s public inquiry commission on electronic surveillance, led AI and human rights work at Global Affairs Canada, and clerked for the Chief Justice at the Quebec Court of Appeal.
In her free time, she’s a hot sauce enthusiast.
