› What is your favorite item in your workspace?

A polaroid of my mum's mum, or license plate from my dad's dad.‍

› How do you manage work-life balance?

No strict rules — there's push and pull there, and I think that's ok. It should be ok to put in a few extra hours when a project needs help, but it should also be ok to take an unplanned afternoon off to savour the last long days of summer.‍
