Ian Davis
Costa Mesa, CA
Raised with an art and photography background and upon graduating with a degree in electronic and computer technology, Ian's original intention was to be "getting into" computer animation, concentrating on sales and marketing. Opting instead to work as a electro-mechanical engineer, his career began with Bell & Howell's Phillipsburgdivision as Field Services Technical Support Engineer. After ten years in the field assisting SMB's up to multi-nationals with their print communications organization and delivery needs, Ian worked within law enforcement Biometrics (NEC), throughout states in the western U. S. region.
Ian has circled back to combine his passions — creative arts married to the latest in computer/web technologies, cherry-picking leaders in Orange County, CA and across the U.S. assist with projects both small and vast.
