What are your strengths? 
Phew, that's difficult. My girlfriend always says that I am a good soul.

What can't you stand? 
I can't think of anything spontaneously, but there are definitely a few things.
A bird pooped on my head once.

What are you enthusiastic about, what are your hobbies? 
Guitar & bass, my pets and of course computer games

What do you prefer when gaming: PC or console? 
PC + Gamepad

What kind of films or series do you particularly like to watch or do you watch often? 
I've definitely seen King of Queens 15 times.
I liked Breaking Bad. Game of Thrones too. (except season 8 of course)
One or the other Netflix series wasn't bad either.

Are you afraid that you might run out of ideas for a game at some point? 
No that won't happen. The problem is rather that you can't implement every idea.

Where do you find the inspiration for your work? 
You can find it everywhere :)

Which game from other studios are you eagerly awaiting and would like to play through? 
At the moment those would be Elden Ring, Death Stranding, Last of Us 2 and the sequel to Stardew Valley.

If you weren't working in the game industry today, what would you have done otherwise?
Did you originally have a different career goal? 
Originally, I wanted to be a guitar maker. I then got into the games industry via a few detours and don't want to leave here now.
