CTO & iOS Lead at Dancefight

I was originally contracted to manage a small team to build a prototype that would interest investors. The app was successfully launched in 2020 and quickly became the home for the street dance community.

Following the successful launch I was asked to join the team as CTO.

As CTO I was responsible for determining the product strategy and roadmap in conjunction with the CEOs. I joined investor calls and met with advisors to the CEOs.

I continued as CTO until the company was acquired by ARIA Ventures in 2025.

Technical Overview

Dancefight was originally prototyped on iOS using Google Cloud Platform and a variety of third party services. Later Android and a simple website were added along with the transition to AWS utilising S3, Lambda, MediaConvert and Cloudfront.
