Bio
Kirsten Powers
I worked for Sebastian as the Director of UX at Nearpod. Sebas is one of the best leaders, communicators, and mentors in my career. His product knowledge and creativity are second to none. His high energy and trust in his team to do the work led to many successes and growth of a truly impactful instructional and distance learning platform. Sebas is in a class of his own in product leadership.

Sebas is a great mentor and expert in product thinking. I had the pleasure of working with Sebas on Nearpod's product team as a Product Management Fellow. Sebas's ability to empathize with Nearpods users and think strategically about his product's future makes him an extremely valuable asset and leader to Nearpod's team. Sebas also does a great job connecting to his team members and advocating for their strengths. Any team would be lucky to have a leader like Sebas!
