[edit] Biography

Salome Soe Gschwind Penski (born in Basel, Switzerland on September 16, 1988) is a Swiss Commentator and Moderator at Freaks 4U Gaming GmbH, an international gaming agency located in Berlin, Germany.

Soe is well known within esports and has attended events such as Blizzcon, The Starcraft II World Championship Series, Gamescom, IFA and the World Cyber Games to name but a few, as a host and commentator in either English or German. Soe is also the presenter and mastermind behind "Soe's Corner", an informative and fun segment run during NASL Season 3. The show combines her two biggest passions, showcasing her artistic abilities and providing fundamental Starcraft II know-how.

Videos of some of Soe's artwork are available at http://www.youtube.com/user/Soembie. Her channel is home to speed-drawings, engravings, sculptures and work within other media, usually with a gaming-related twist, and very often with a Starcraft II theme. A more comprehensive collection of Soe's sketches, paintings and other artwork is available on her Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/Soe.Penski

Soe's e-sports career began with shoutcasting beat-em-ups, Bloody Roar. She then moved on to shoutcast Quake Live, and continues to be involved with that scene. Soe has since broadened her area of expertise and alongside many other titles began working with World of WarCraft and Starcraft II. Due to her commitment to adaptability and her ongoing involvement with a myriad of games, Soe has not been able to focus exclusively on Starcraft II or any other game in particular.
