Team Lead within the newly formed CBS Interactive Music Group, maintaining all Radio.com, Yahoo and AOL music products, working in Research & Development of future technology.  

A web and native iOS app functional proof of concept designed to harmonize the group listening experience, offering crowds the ability to easily connect, explore and participate in their music scene. We developed a web plug-in that when installed at any brick and mortar venue would scrape the streaming data of major online streaming audio products, Pandora, Spotify, Slacker... sending this data to a central API, a consumer facing app could surface this information immediately within a mobile app being server side driven, rather than using a Shazam or SoundHound app through AI and sound recognition. 

This POC utilized proprietary technology which resulted in a patent for non-streaming, non royalty based music service: “techniques to track music played”.

Programming stations within an interactive drag and drop web interface, using artists, genres and CBS radio station programing to influence playlists.
