Ride Along with Ian Mackay
Get to know our Guest
Ian Mackay was born and raised in San Diego, California. In 2001 he moved
to Goleta, California and attended Santa Barbara City College. He had many
interests in his early college years, beginning as a business major, and ending
up getting an Associates degree in communication before delving into sign
language for a year. Soon after, he took a field botany course and realized
that his true interest was in the field of biology. He ended up moving to Santa
Cruz, California and enrolled at Cabrillo College. He took almost nothing but
science courses for the next few years and then transferred to UCSC.
Ian was fortunate to live near campus where he could bike to school and use
a vehicle sparingly. Cycling was one of his preferred hobbies as well as table
tennis, craft beer, nature photography, and bluegrass music. There was a
wonderful bike path that went up the large hill to campus and one of his
greatest joys was riding down that path daily after school. On June 4, 2008
when he was 26 years old everything changed.
