My name is Ian Fisher. I'm a software developer at a fintech startup in New York. I previously worked at Google on the Fuchsia operating system. I am also the creator of a popular series of geography quizzes, now hosted at cityquiz.io. If you'd like to get in touch, send an email to my first name @ the name of the website. I'm @ianafisher on Twitter.
