Sebastian Schepis’s Summary

I am a software developer and integration specialist, specializing in implementation and integration of Primavera's Project Management suite of products. I consult through Ecosys Management Inc., a premier solution provider for Primavera Software Systems, Inc.

I have also done a ton of Internet application development, and can create web apps in anything from PHP to Java and .net. I've been coding Internet apps since 1995 so I've been around the block a few times with pretty much every major tech that's hit the scene since then.

I also own and operate Zoomi Scooters, LLC, an electric bicycle brand. We currently sell the Zoomi Monterey 350 watt electric bicycle model.

I run a blog on the electric vehicle industry, http://www.zoomilife.com - we report on a variety of electric vehicle news and products. Come check it out and leave a comment!

I also run a blog on light electric vehicles, http://www.levadvisor.com - we do reviews and cover news for light electric vehicles - electric bicycles, electric scooters, electric mopeds, and electric skateboards.

I also run an online e-commerce website for light electric vehicles - http://www.electricvehiclefactory.com - check us out if you're looking for an e-bike, scooter, e-moped or skateboard. I'll give you a great deal.

I'm also the CTO of SmakNews, a women's-focused social media site. We're currently still in dev, but will be launching the beta in late March 2009.

For pocket and gas money I also do some affiliate marketing of health products online.

As you can imagine, I don't sleep much. As one of my heroes says, "time enough to sleep in the grave"

I am always looking to connect with people that can assist me in marketing Zoomi Scooters and helping to make it a success or guest posting on my blog, and am always happy to consider new Primavera integration and customization work, or just connect with other like-minded professionals.
