About
Hey, I'm Sebastian, or Sebby for short. I'm an incoming CS & MS&E student at Stanford, but am currently on gap year working at Palantir. I'm an amateur builder working in GovTech (and other areas) to bridge AI agents with B2B SaaS. I'm also deeply interested in breaking into VC.
In high school, I wrote policy briefs commisioned by the United Nations and Federal Register. I also represented the United States internationally in economics, and built a technology platform adopted by the United States Justice Department.
I love talking to cool people. If you have something you are working on, let's chat.
