About
I'm Ian Labardee, just an average guy. I live in an up-and-coming city in the northern midwest known as Grand Rapids. I've been blessed with a hot wife, and 2 awesome daughters. I'm passionate about good design of all kinds, I love toying amateurishly with cameras, I'm fairly confused under the hood of a car, but I love a good survival weekend in the great outdoors.
