History of DRT Performance Tix

History

Like many great businesses, DRT Performance Tix started at a kitchen table. Co-Founder and CEO, Joshua Olson, who happened to own a Dance Competition Software company called WaeTech, was asked to create a ticketing mechanism for a client. Over a weekend he completed all the coding and DRT Performance Tix (DRT), was born.

Stephanie Suarez, Co-Founder and COO, developed DRT's processes and fulfilled many roles while the company grew. Since then, almost 13 years ago, DRT Performance Tix has shortened its name but grown immensely. Entering new markets, adding over 20 full-time staff members and finding time to stay green and give back, DRT has come a long way and can't wait to go even further.
