My story

cultural roots

With roots in Finland, I embody the essence of Finnish "sisu" in my approach to life. I balance both aesthetics and human interaction to create lasting and meaningful impact through every aspect of my work. My rich cultural background fuels my passion for thoughtful and empathetic innovation.

Early Drive

I graduated early at 16 and pursued my Bachelor's in Interaction Design at Santa Monica College. I assumed leadership of the Design Club and am an active member of the PTK Honor Society. My experiences and passion for emerging technology have shaped my philosophy towards design.

FUTURE FORWARD

I thrive when working on experimental projects that push the boundaries of innovation and challenge the status quo. In my downtime I frequent new cafes, read, and spend time with my cats. If I'm not in LA, I'm probably feeding reindeers and making snow angels in Finland.
