project
D-Risk IT
Enova Consulting Ltd.
This project came from a venture capitalist who spotted a market need from a real pain inside their organization. The platform is a B2B model that consists of a suite of tools provided to subscribers (Hedge Funds), so they can get automated evaluations, analysis, and alerts for their applicant companies (startups) according to their customised criteria.
One of the provided tools is a microsite hosting service to redirect applicants and fill in their startup’s relevant aspects. All parameters are stored in their servers and benchmarked to calculate the market value for investment opportunities.
I was given a budget and a project brief and assigned to architect the whole system (back-end, front end, and frameworks), then assembled the team to build and develop the first version according to the project’s priorities for the budget, time, and scope.

project
MUSAR - Mobile App Development
Enova Consulting Ltd.
We created this museum-oriented platform in which curators and artists can create great stories for the visitors to find the motivation and history behind the pieces. In the early days of augmented reality (AR) I lead the development team to design and deploy new features. The cloud platform was entirely designed by me and it enabled the animation team to create, upload and edit high-impact content for new exhibitions as well as tracking the user interaction and gather information on which museums/exhibitions/pieces were more relevant to their experience as visitors. Pseudo-Holographic content was shown in 3D space through the user’s camera.
As part of a second phase of the project, I worked together with Southampton City Art Gallery and the University of Southampton Solent to create an augmented reality experience involving a gallery with more than 10 artworks and a city demonstration for a research project involving the artwork from the acclaimed artist Dan Perfect. The project quickly gained traction and attention from the media and other galleries.
