I’m a Helsinki-based writer, photographer and artist with a Master’s degree in Culture and Arts.

I have always worked within the arts and design. My very first job was at an architectural office, after which I studied fashion in the UK and Italy. I then worked in PR and communications within the design and arts sector in London.

I now divide my time between personal art projects and commissioned work that ranges from branded content and advertising to editorials and print publications.

In the past 15 years I have also pursued further studies to deepen my understanding of the fascinating complexities of arts and culture, as well as the ever-evolving and often bizarre contemporary world.
