What best describes Katrina? The editorial team doesn’t quite agree. But the truth probably lies somewhere between a handball pro, gen Z rep, cooking enthusiast and crêpe connoisseur. She is an excellent complement to our editorial team and counter-attacks with humour not only in table football, but also when jokes are once again being made about her home Canton.

Linda is our Head of Marketing and is up for any kind of fun. When she’s not spinning, jogging or boxing, she’s laughing until her stomach hurts at a comedy show. Linda has lived everywhere and provides us with the best holiday tips. Besides, Linda loves skirts so much that it’s almost a bit strange when she wears trousers for once.
