I have hired many people over the years, run companies, bought companies, and make VC investment decisions now, which are almost the same task. In every case there is the minimum qualification and the personal magic you bring above or outside that. The desire for "senior" means "skills and experience." It may well be met with skills and magic other than experience, such as passion, intellect, and energy. Your email suggests these, so be sure to bring them to your interviews!
