What are your strengths? 
You have to ask your colleagues. ;)

What can't you stand? 
A tidy desktop.

What are you enthusiastic about, what are your hobbies? 
Hobbies ... not really. That's what happens when you turn your hobby into a job.

What do you prefer when gaming: PC or console? 
Console. Better to sit relaxed on the sofa.

What kind of films or series do you particularly like to watch or do you watch often? 
Hmmm ... there is so much to watch. The main thing is that it grabs me.

Are you afraid that you might run out of ideas for a game at some point? 
No.

Where do you find the inspiration for your work? 
Other games and lectures.

If you weren't working in the game industry today, what would you have done otherwise? Did you originally have a different career goal? 
I can't imagine doing anything else.
