Who's Ian?

Hey! I am a software engineer based in Laguna Niguel, California.

I love building small apps to make my life easier and reading up on system design. Right now, Netflix's prefetching techinques are blowing my mind.

I had a background in fine dining and love to cook fancy meals at home.
