Hi, I'm Sebastian.

I'm a software engineer from New York working on freelance and personal projects while earning a degree from the University of Toronto.

My Services.

As a software engineer with years of experience, I create amazing websites and web applications that aim to make the internet a better place. I believe in #EthicalCS – a practice of understanding cultural context before building technology.

Web Applications

I build applications that are minimalistic and maintainable, providing functionality without redundant lines of code.

Web Design

I design applications with modern libraries and frameworks that are both interactive and use the latest in digital design trends.

Community

I give back to the developer community by conducting research, organizing events, and teaching the next generation.

My Skills & Tools.

I build applications using some of the best and most advanced tools available. These tools allow me to create any project from the ground up, from an initial design to full scale implementation.
