The Mill brought me in to build its AR practice around AR Studio, then Facebook's new effects platform. I built and led a team that grew to ten creative technologists, shipping more than 300 effects for Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and Portal.

When Facebook launched Portal, The Mill produced the launch the titles for the interactive Story Time app, which let users read children's books over a video call. I lead the production and technical development.
