I work at Meta driving R&D efforts to develop and ship new technology in MR/VR/AR and AI.

• Shaped the evolution of Meta's core mixed reality platform — driving the device from a rudimentary understanding of physical space to being capable of fully immersive MR experiences. Contributed to Scene API, Instant Placement, Assisted Scene Capture, Anchors, and Occlusion, influencing both the capabilities developers build with and the experiences users encounter.

• Lead designer for Hyperscape: enabling people and businesses to scan their physical spaces and generate photorealistic, shareable 3D environments, shipped across Meta's platforms.

• Designed early experiences for Orion, Meta's AR glasses, including holographic calling, messaging, and spatial activities that informed the device's direction.

• Designed real-time social AR effects, multi-participant experiences, and foundational virtual object frameworks for Spark AR, powering new categories of creative expression across Messenger, Instagram, and Portal.

• Managed a platform capabilities team in R&D for 1.5 years before choosing to return to hands-on design as an IC.

I worked at Google to help bring out the potential of AR and VR. Approaching from a hybrid position of design and development, I work with the most cutting-edge breakthroughs in the immersive computing space to push the boundaries of the ways that people interact with technology.

I worked with Columbia College Chicago online initially to help them create an effective scaffold for their vision of an AR and VR curriculum.

I also created a course on AR/VR design and development, and guided student cohorts through the curriculum.

I was the sole designer and developer of Paint Space AR, which had the honor of being named by Apple as one of the best apps of 2017 (AR Category, Tech and Innovation)

Paint Space AR was the number one most downloaded AR entertainment app on the app store, and the 4th most downloaded non-gaming AR app one month after the launch of iOS 11 and ARKit. It was also a launch day partner with Google and ARCore.

Paint Space AR is an augmented reality creativity app for your phone that lets you paint the world. My vision for Paint Space was to create a mobile painting experience that was both intuitive and powerful, while being a versatile tool for casual doodlers and dedicated artists alike.
