Character

A computer-whiz and ex-lover of Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford), Sean arrived in Genoa City coincidentally to replace Phyllis as Jabot Web Designer. He lived in a high rise apartment with no furnishings but a card table, two chairs and a futon - in an attempt to return to a minimalist way of life from his younger years. However he did still keep a Picasso in the closet. Sean seemed to have a lot of connections in his past, counting entertainers Lionel Richie and B. B. King among his friends.

The mysterious Sean seemed to have scoped out the options and chose "older woman" Jill Abbott (Jess Walton) as his companion. While Jill remained wary of the younger man and his motives, he was able to sweep her off her feet. Sean was a good influence on the embittered Jill, showing viewers a glimpse of the fun-loving innocent woman she once was. Sean moved in to the Chancellor Estate and lived with Jill. But after Jill rejected his marriage proposals, Sean quit Jabot and returned to New York City.
