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 spark creativity?
Creativity is more of a background thread for me; it's generally there, chewing on a task or problem set, periodically returning ideas for the conscious mind to test or validate.
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.
What do you think is the main benefit of remote work?
Subtracting geography from the hiring equation helps create more diverse and meritocratic teams.
