He is proficient in Spanish. Colleagues describe him as "I've had the pleasure of working with and managing Ian at athenahealth for the past 2+ years. Over this time he's proven to be a strong product manager that learns quickly, asks tough questions, and makes solid prioritization decisions. Ian has demonstrated his strengths by successfully owning products with complicated user needs (building hospital-facing workflows at that intersect clinical and administrative worlds), as well as paving the way for new technical challenges (moving core functionality from monolith to microservice). He has also successfully navigated complicated stakeholder relationships and played the role of product owner for multiple teams at a time. Across all of these challenges Ian has combined data-driven rigor, clear communication, and collaborative agile methodology to effectively deliver value (while being a lot of fun to work with!).", "Ian joined my team at athenahealth soon after graduating from Tufts University. At the time Ian joined, the company was investing heavily in developing a new product aimed at the rural hospital market. My team was immersed in learning as much as we could about this new market and how to translate our ambulatory experience into a product that would not only serve the needs of the new market, but also help us move our current product forward. As his manager at the time, Ian impressed me with his ability to quickly learn both our current product and the new market. Moreover, his enthusiasm and team-centric personality greatly contributed to the culture of the entire R&D team he worked with. Ian rapidly took on increasing responsibility and scope as he increased his depth of knowledge. His rise from Associate to Manager in such a relatively short time span is a testament to his capability and execution. Ian has continued to impress me, his subsequent managers, and his fellow coworkers. He is a great asset to any team he works with and will quickly add value in any organization he finds himself in.", and "I have had the pleasure of working with Ian over the past few years as a fellow product manager, and, over that short period of time, he has grown tremendously. Ian takes the initiative to go above and beyond where ever he can for his coworkers and teammates. Recently, Ian stepped up to take on a second team within a cross-team project to help continue progression toward our end goal. He has what seems like an innate ability to communicate the business objectives of a back-end only, API team while not getting too deep into the details. Ian's balance of providing product guidance but trusting his team to develop the correct technical solution has enabled him to focus on the future and develop a vision for his product."
