Best Coffee Guide 2017 - 2023 The team at Paced Group approached me in 2017 to rebuild app app they had purchased from another company. The existing app was focused just on London's best café's, but they wanted to expand the coverage to multiple cities and to update and improve the design. As the app needed to work on both iOS and Android, we decided that using React Native was the best choice.

Pose.Party 2020 - 2021 Pose.Party is a fun game for virtual events and groups of friends to play together in real-time remotely. They first join a video call with a host, who will guide them through the game. After opening a link on their phone and entering their name, they are shown a prompt such as "Peace" and will have 30 seconds to pull the best pose they can. At the end of the round each player scores everyone else with a simple swipe left or right.
Rnwl 2021 - 2023 Rnwl gives users everything they need to manage their insurance right at their fingertips when they need it. It is beginning with car insurance, but in the future will expand to other types of insurance. The team approached me to set up the foundations for their mobile app. I decided to use Expo as it provided a lot of the functionality they required and allowed their team of Windows and Linux developers to be able to easily work on the app.
