About me
I'm a father, a spouse, a warm-hearted introvert. Based in Helsinki, originally from the Southern Ostrobothnia, Western Finland.
Like so many nowdays, I'm mostly self-taught. Constant desire to learn drives me forward. Lately, for example, I've been interested in topics like the future of work, well-being issues and accessibility – to mention few.
Of course, a formal education is good to have, too! My first degree, Further Qualification in Audiovisual Communication gave video production knowledge basics – along with journalism principles. The education was a mixture of practical work in a small production company and theory-practice periods arranged by Radio and Television institute, YLE, Helsinki.
My second degree is Bachelor of Culture and Arts in Graphic Design from Institute of Design and Fine Arts, Lahti. That strengthened my overall design skills, and gave valuable lessons about typography, creativity and marketing.
I've worked in tv-news as a video editor, learned respecting the hard work done in the building industry, delivered music related projects as a web dev and designer. Basically though, most of my work life has happened in small companies promoting environmental issues. So all nature-related projects will always have a special place in my heart.
As a last ‘secret’: Music has always been very important for me. Among other things it has given me valuable life lessons, starting from the very young age. Back in the days our small team of friends took care of rehearsal spaces for musicians, and arranged gigs for Finnish legends like Stratovarius, Nightwish, Darude...
Why to tell that? Because starting from those days, the startup-ish, do-it-yourself way has been so natural for me. Of course, back then it was just punk!
