He saves time wearing the first t-shirt and the first pair of jeans that he can find in his wardrobe and an unkempt beard. He loves to observe the starry sky using his telescope and his desk is a curious cluster of things: three computers, some Arduinos and Raspberry Pi, piles of sheets full of notes, a graphics tablet, and a 3D printer. During his work he uses to listen to cartoon songs while eating almost continuously gummy and licorice candies.
