As a designer, researcher, and transformer, I’m passionate about creating user-centered designs that merge performance, technology, and innovation. In the heart of technical sportswear design, problem-solving and collaboration are at the heart of my work, balancing the needs of multiple stakeholders while addressing complex global processes, technical specs, and brand storytelling. These skills are transferrable across industries, where design fosters creative problem-solving.

 

Growing up in Finland, where functionality is a necessity, has deeply influenced my approach. With international experience at Nike and Salomon, I bring a collaborative spirit and problem-solving mindset, understanding the intricacies of large organisations. Rooted in Nordic design principles, I balance aesthetics with technical precision, ensuring my work in apparel, CMF design, service design, and innovation is both functional and impactful. Committed to solving real-world problems, I strive to enhance well-being while respecting natural boundaries and social justice. My drive to continuously learn fuels my growth and contribution to the world.
