Losing a high-level software development job during the 2009 recession can be devastating. Having the courage to explore your hobbies can lead to new opportunities. Following his love of grilling and food, Ivan works as a “food rescuer” as the Chief Procurement Officer for Lex Eat Together and is a Board member of the non-for-profit Food Link which rescues surplus fresh food and delivers it to community organizations.
Ivan is also a life-time Boston Red Sox fan, and a year round tour guide for Fenway Park in Boston. Prior to following these passions, Ivan worked as the Director of Program Management for the software firm Mathworks where he was responsible for software development and project management.
