Eventually his work in the semiconductor industry allowed him to travel the world and later he was co-owner of IMTech, Inc. in Austin, TX.

Always a generous man and a wonderful cook, Ivan was often involved in charity events which helped many families in and around the greater Austin area.

Throughout his life, Ivan was an active sportsman; he enjoyed football, fishing, golf, softball and baseball. Ivan was a huge fan of the Houston Astros.
