Kevin previously served as an advisor to FTC Chair Lina M. Khan, shaping the Commission’s privacy and security agenda. During his tenure, he played a key role in groundbreaking cases, including health privacy issues involving social media tracking, record monetary settlements under COPPA, actions against location data brokers, and cases addressing facial recognition misuse and surreptitious data sales.

Before advising the Chair, Kevin spent a decade as a litigator in the FTC’s Division of Privacy and Identity Protection, leading its first litigated data security case, which established the FTC’s authority over unfair data security practices. He also led federal court actions on secure software development, innovative privacy enforcement, and the FTC’s first actions under the Red Flags Rule and against an advertising exchange.
