Sebastiaan has worked on building apps and websites since he was 16 years old.

Prior to Limbic, Sebastiaan founded and ran Florin (the best peer-to-peer payment app in The Netherlands, according to multiple consumer reports). Sebastiaan has a keen eye and proven track record for developing intuitive apps and digital interfaces. He believes these user-centric principles are lacking in health-technology today (and that it’s time to remedy the situation).
