Daniël Benjamin "Berno" Maré

Following a career pivot from market research, Berno joined EA as a Webflow Developer. A fun little tidbit about everyone's favorite long-haired Dev, is that he knows all the lyrics to Billy Joel's We Didn't Start the Fire. Just don't ask him to recite them on the spot. He's very shy.

When Berno isn't watching reruns of Judge Judy or diving into the latest open world video game, he enjoys working in his garden and reminiscing about that one time he got an Expert-level high score in Sudoku.

Berno is a proudly South African Afrikaner. Which is something that's reflected in his music tastes. His favorite South African musicians and bands include Laurika Rauch and Die Heuwels Fantasties, but he's also a super fan of the Australian electronic duo, Flight Facilities.

When asked for his favorite quote, in true Berno fashion, he provided a South African-ism that he lives his life by. It goes: "Dit help nie om 'n hoender te druk om 'n eier te lê nie. Al wat jy kry, as jy hard genoeg druk, is 'n dooie hoender." But you're probably looking for an English translation too. Here goes: "It doesn't help you squeeze a chicken to lay an egg. All you get, if you squeeze hard enough, is a dead chicken."

One thing about Berno is that he loves being a developer. But, if he could do anything else for a career, he'd choose something that involved a trade or the operation of heavy machinery.
