Ian Markauskas is a tech worker, photographer, poet, activist, comic, and artist all rolled into one handy package who is terrible at writing bios (his words, not mine).

As a physically disabled gay man with cerebral palsy, he has faced quite a bit of adversity in his lifetime. From learning to walk twice, to defying statistics and entering the workforce, he doesn't think he will ever get to a point where he can say "Yes, I have overcome all the obstacles, every adverse event is behind me!" Life is always changing. That said, as long as he is here, he isn't planning on giving up any time soon.

You can find Ian on www.ian.photos , Instagram, Twitter, and Tumblr. Given his wacky sense of humor, Ian is also an aspiring standup comic, so be sure to check him out on comedyian.ca, as well as his recently published parody new website Basically Gay.
