Sébastien G. - developer in France
Sébastien G.
Writing code is easy. Writing good code isn't, it takes skill. (10+ years of work experience)

**My passion started back in 2001** with the achievement of a complete blog (gaming team website). Since that experience **I never stopped to be curious** about software/development technologies, that's why after my baccalaureate I decided to get the master degree of *Epitech (European Institute of Technology)*. In 2011 I decided to do my fourth year in *Beijing at BJTU (Beijing Jiaotong University)* to have a double master in mobile technologies. With those years, experiences, school, work, I learned how to be a **real good element in a team**, but also, how to **manage a team**.
