Career

Simone calls herself “The Queen of shitty Robots” and directs a YouTube channel in which she uses Dry Humor to demonstrate how robots created by herself work to automate everyday tasks; despite working from a purely mechanical point of view, they often do not reach practical utility, to give a comical effect.  Simone’s creations include an alarm clock that slaps the user,  a lipstick applicator,  and another to wash his hair.  When building their robots, Simone does not aim to be useful, prefer to create exaggerated solutions for potentially automatable situations.

In 2016, Simone joined Tested.com , collaborating with Adam Savage on his first project, the Casco to eat popcorn. In 2017, she starred in the comedy television show called Manick with Nisse Hallberg in Sweden for the TV channel TV6. The basic plot of the program is that the presenters invent creative and fun solutions for everyday problems.
