Hello, I'm Ian! Currently, I'm a Computer Science major at Loyola Marymount University. I was born & raised in the small but homely state of Rhode Island. After deciding that I needed to explore some new places, meet new people, and try lots of different things, I moved to Los Angeles to further my education.
At LMU, I've learned so many things and have been involved with all types of activities. I am a teaching assistant for the Keck Lab and LMU's Google CSSIx, the Co-President of LMU's Association for Computing Machinery, an active member of the Delta Sigma Phi fraternity–just to name a few. I have also been involved with the Japanese Cultural Club Kyodai and the LMU Men's Volleyball Club Team.
For programming experience, my primary focus is application development, with an emphasis on frontend. I have programmed mostly in Javascript and Typescript, Python, and Java, as well as some experience with Golang. On top of that, I've worked with various technologies such as React, React Native, AWS and Google App Engine. Currently, I'm a Site Reliability Engineering Intern at Atlassian, where I work on various frontend & backend development technologies on the Platform SRE team.
