I enjoy dreaming about new product ideas and bringing them to life in mobile apps. My focus for the past few years has been on building new sharing spaces including the initial versions of Instagram Stories, IGTV, and Collabs. I am currently building Retro, a friends-only photo journal for moments big and small. I strive to straddle the border between engineering, design, and product. I am most proud of bringing several innovative ideas to the stories format including hold to pause, backwards navigation, and GIF stickers. Later in my time at Instagram, I started and led a group called Instagram Labs to focus on experimental new product development. I also enjoy building open source tools for the iOS developer community. My in-app debugging tool, FLEX, has become one of the most popular iOS projects on GitHub.
