Sebastian was born in Merced and has been living in Atwater his whole life. He has used his multimedia skills to tell stories throughout his lifetime and now teaches his experiences to youth through Merced’s youth media program, We’Ced. Serving 10-15 youth annually, the program gives them the tools and teaches them to use their creativity to share the stories of what is happening to them and their communities.
Sebastian is a long-time organizer in the central valley, seeking to bring attention to the struggles that his people are experiencing, and create solidarity across his community.
