What is your favorite item in your workspace?

My favorite item is my split keyboard, it really saved my wrist from pain.

How do you keep the work-life balance?

I try to only work 9-5 and I do a quick workout at home right after I finish working, that helps me disconnect from work mode and be more present with my family for the rest of the night.
