Ian
Founder, Editor, Developer, Designer, Sleepless
Ian's passionate about cars, development, and design. As a critical thinker and natural problem solver, he's been building and breaking things since the beginning. He started cutting his teeth in web development by building community automotive sites in 1999. He's spent the last 10+ years developing innovative learning systems for the biggest state university in the U.S., starting his own web development company, and having a blast learning about everything. In true masochistic form, he loves to commute in an aluminum torture box that is the Lotus Elise.
