After graduating from the Universidad de la Sabana (Colombia) with a degree in Industrial Engineer, Sebastian started his career on the sugar business in Valley Trading Commodities as a trader for the Caribbean region, finding buyers on new markets like Haiti, Trinidad & Tobago and Jamaica.  

After 3 successful years opening new markets in the Caribbean, Sebastian joined CIAMSA advising Shareholders and the CEO on Strategic Development Projects including Financial Analysis of Investment Opportunities and development of strategies on futures market for the Mills in Colombia.

In 2007 Sebastian joined BALMAC, LLC in New York, a hedge fund based on trading sugar futures and options. He worked as Trader developing new strategies combining futures, options and spreads. He was selected by this company to present the series 3 exam. During the Financial crisis of 2008 the Fund administrated by Sebastian performed a growth of 60%, attracting new investors eager to invest money in sophisticated markets to offset the losses in other markets.

In 2011, Sebastian started his own company, a Hedge Fund and Brokerage firm called Ceres Trading Commodities, giving advice and assistance to companies in South America and the Caribbean on topics related to the futures, the risk involved on trading commodities, the strategies to finance the trading and the coach on technical analysis and electronic trading.    .

Today, Sebastian is still active in the Fund developing strategies that combine technical analysis, fundamental news and the real trading of the companies involved on the Sugar business, as there is a "knowledge gap" on the real market and the futures to be filled with the best advices and strategies.

Sebastian has a degree in Industrial Engineering from the Universidad de la Sabana and a Post Graduate on Financial Derivatives from the New York Finance Institute. Sebastian is fluent in Spanish, Portuguese and English.

Sebastian is fond of Football, loves the Historical Novels and firmly believes that God is the right answer.
