Billy Doran is the founder of Dunkademics, the world's premier freestyle dunk content platform. A competitive dunker himself, Billy won the YouTube Slam Dunk Contest in 2009 and was featured on ESPN for his dunking ability — credentials that gave him the credibility to build something unique.

In 2011, Billy founded Dunkademics with a simple mission: document the best dunkers in the world before the world knew who they were. Over the next 15 years, he filmed over 30,000 dunks, building the largest freestyle dunk video archive ever created and growing an audience of over 1 million followers across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and Snapchat.

Billy is also a commentary host, producing regular breakdowns and analysis for his TikTok channel, breaking down dunk technique, vertical jump science, and the culture of the sport for a new generation of fans.
