After the successful launch of Instagram Stories, I led the development of Instagram Carousels, a feature designed to enhance storytelling on the main feed and user profiles. This feature allows users to post multiple photos and videos in a single post, creating a more dynamic and engaging experience. I was instrumental in both the design and technical aspects of the project.

I collaborated closely with designers to brainstorm and prototype possible solutions. My contributions included developing interactive prototypes that explored various user interactions and content arrangements, which were crucial in refining the final design.

I oversaw development across iOS, Android, and web platforms, but focused primarily on the iOS implementation, writing significant portions of the shipping code.

In late 2015, I was brought onto a very small team tasked with designing a new creative format for Instagram. I was responsible for prototyping and building a new set of expressive and fluid creative tools native to this new format.
