About me

In my work, I focus on sustainability, user-centred solutions, and data analysis.

My academic background is in environmental science/biology, so I’m most at home with the biological, chemical and physical aspects of the natural world, as well as human-centred environmental health and applied zoology. More recently, I’ve also studied statistical maths and coding.

Circular economy in everyday life is something I really care about. I actually trained as a shoemaker back when the programme was still offered at the Visamäki campus, so I can both make and repair shoes. Working with my hands gives me a different, very practical perspective on how the circular economy works in real life.

DiSCE – Digitalisation for sustainable development and circular economy solutions
