Sebastien Ragon

Sebastien has over a decade of experience in the water-based access industry. His expertise includes negotiating and collaborating with city officials, park managers, other government and non-profit organizations, as well as individuals, in the acquisition process to close deals ranging from $1,000 to $3.5 million dollars. His strong ethical approach of confronting any challenge continues to make him a great partner with distributors, agents, contractors and governmental clients. He prides himself on innovative thinking which has resulted in improving and creating new products nationally, as well as internationally. Sebastien has participated in several hearings with the U.S. Access Board and the American Shore & Beach Preservation Association to discuss and establish ADA beach access routes. His expertise, experience and sensitivity were invaluable in assessing the need for ADA guidelines which mandates access to beaches for all. Sebastien has also participated in numerous conferences, trade shows and trainings such as the ADA Symposium, National Recreation & Parks Association (NRPA), American Shore & Beach Preservation Association (ASBPA), to stay in the forefront of the Accessibility and Recreation Industries. Sebastien is always ready to roll up his sleeves to help clients with installations or to demonstrate the superior quality of AccessRec products. He values the feedback of clients first hand by being available in the field to assess immediate and future needs. Although, Sebastien began his work improving access for ALL in 2004, his personal experience of rehabilitating from a stroke in 2013, further sealed both his and Kristen’s commitment to therapeutic recreation and availability. Sebastien proudly attributes his recovery to his characteristic perseverance and hard work, and undeniably, Kristen’s dedication and support. This successful teamwork is reflected in their work ethic, creating the foundation of AccessRec LLC.
