About the author
I’m a New Yorker in my mid-twenties. I first moved to NYC as an infant, and my parents proudly recount stories of me hailing taxis when I was only a couple of feet tall. After moving around a bit while growing up in London, New Zealand, Paris, New Jersey, and San Francisco, I returned to New York in early 2021 and have made it my home.
I graduated from Princeton University with a degree in computer science and entrepreneurship, and now work at Google as a product manager on Google Maps. I’m a member of Manhattan Community Board 8, which covers the Upper East Side and Roosevelt Island.
My personal website is www.sebthedev.com. You can also find me on Threads, LinkedIn, and elsewhere as “sebthedev”. There’s always email.
