Elsie believes that the cell phone is the greatest invention in the last 50 years and claims that the strangest thing she's eaten is turkey with cranberry sauce.

Why Microsoft Cambridge?
In a big company like Microsoft I wanted to be part of a new and growing campus and be here right from the beginning and watch as new groups come here and we start growing this center.
What is your favorite feature about the new Cambridge campus?
I am amazed by how much it costs to pay for parking, I just love the fact that we have free parking here.
Any guilty pleasures?
I used to be a big coffee drinker, that used to be it but I cut back. Now you'll see me walking down the buildings with my soy chai.
What's the greatest invention in the last fifty years?
I think it's the cell phone. I grew up in Zimbabwe where it was really hard to get telephone lines. I know a lot of people that don't have a PC, they don't have a car, they don't even have a really great house, but they have a cell phone. I think it's just changed the way they can communicate.
What is the strangest thing you have ever eaten?
I had, at Thanksgiving; I had turkey with cranberry sauce and for me that was just strange. I never had white meat with a sweet red sauce and I didn't really understand how they would go together and now that I've had a few times its not so strange anymore.
