Ellie Millen -Facilitator & Experience Design

Ellie is a multifaceted facilitator and experience design leader with over a decade of experience working with and managing collaborative groups. She is passionate about bringing a human-centered philosophy of curiosity and authenticity to everything she does, from designing custom workshops to teaching, mentorship and people management.

Ellie’s superpower is using play, active listening, and authenticity to create safe, engaging environments that allow teams to share their best selves and work together fearlessly.

Most recently, Ellie was a lead designer and manager at Candy Digital, where she was foundational to the strategic development of the Entertainment and Culture experience, including the Webby Award winning Stranger Things Season 5 augmented reality game. She also was tapped to design and facilitate a multi-day cross-functional strategic visioning retreat for company leadership.

Her lifelong love affair with collaborative creation began with community theater in her hometown of Anchorage, Alaska. In her personal time, you can find Ellie learning how to crochet, road tripping around the Midwest, and spending as much joyful, silly time with her dog, partner and friends as possible.
