Biography: Ian lived in McKinley, Pennsylvania, and attended the fictional McKinley High School. Like his girlfriend Erin, he is shown to be very intelligent. He and Erin also work together at the local 'Build It' store. Ian attends the carnival with Erin for their senior class field trip. They both board Devil's Flight, but before the ride starts, classmate Wendy Christensen has a vision that the ride will crash, killing everyone on board. When she panics, a fight ensues between Lewis Romero and Kevin Fischer. When Lewis accidentally slaps Erin, Ian gets involved as well, and they are all thrown off the ride, shortly before the ride crashes as Wendy predicted. Weeks later, he appears at the school, signing yearbooks with Erin, when they see a somber Wendy walking alone in the rain. He and Erin laugh a little when they see Ashley Freund and Ashlyn Halperin try to invite Wendy to a tanning salon.

After Ashley and Ashlyn die, he and Erin appear at their funeral. He makes a scene in front of the other guests when the minister says, "We are all equal in Death's eyes", before being led to his car by Lewis and Kevin Fischer. After Lewis and Frankie Cheeks die, Wendy and Kevin go to the Build it hardware store and try to warn Ian and Erin that Death is still after them and they are next on Death's list, but they are very skeptical about their warning. Deciding to mock Wendy, Ian brings up a theory that if the last survivor were to kill themselves, it would ruin Death's plan and save everyone else on the list. Afterwards, he is nearly impaled by a falling stack of plywood. Wendy manages to push him out of the way at the last second, but Death immediately skips him and goes to Erin, who is shot in the back of the head with a nail gun. This leaves Ian devastated and causes him to resent Wendy, whom he blames for Erin's death.
