About Chris.

Meet Chris, the visionary behind Stellar Effects. Chris is a multifaceted creator with a degree in Computer Science and a deep passion for the intersection of technology and culture. His fascination of social media, the creator economy, and the latest trends in digital media has led him to specialize in AR.

Chris got his start making IG effects at an entrepreneurial program in Tel Aviv, Israel, and he quickly made a name for himself in the AR space with his game-changing effects. Many of his creations have gone viral, and he's even verified on IG (for real) for his innovative work.

In addition to his freelance work, Chris also works full-time as a Product Manager Lead at a Seattle startup, where he builds out multiple product lines that deliver millions in ARR. And in his free time, Chris operates a greeting card Etsy shop with his bestie, gets casted in YouTube videos, and stays up-to-date on the latest trends in the world of digital media. He's dedicated to staying ahead of the curve and pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the world of AR, one pixel at a time.
