This includes internal events as well as conferences and trade shows that Testbirds take part in. Current Computer:Like all Testbirdies I am using a Lenovo Laptop. Don’t ask me for the technical details. Even with cars the only important thing for me is that the thing is running.Current mobile device:My brand-new mobile is an iPhone 5C. After some experiments with other manufacturers it is the one I enjoyed using the most.One phrase that best describes how you work:“With a drop of chaos”A typical work day consists of:Just to list the most important ones: right hand to the boss, checking emails, writing invoices, working on event organization, mothering, designing and so on.What apps/software/tools can’t you live without?None. Apps and software are tools that keep me from living my life!What’s your work space setup like?I am situated in a single room at Testbirds, accompanied only by the office printer.

My room is also used as storage every so often.What’s your best time-saving shortcut?Str+S; for saving the important documentsBesides your phone and computer, what gadget can’t you live without (and why)?Radio or anything that plays music, because I love to listen to a good song and interesting reports – but not the whole day please.What everyday thing are you better at than everyone else?
