About me

I am a Product Designer born in Finland and raised in Sweden. When I started to learn design it was natural for me to also learn how to code as just imagining things was nice, but the real magic happened when I could build the designs to life as well! I had found my passion! I think my developer background help me to understand the constraints and see the possibilities when I design.

In my free time, I love spending time with my family, listen to audiobooks, playing board/video games and baking bread.

Currently I work as a Senior Product Designer at Futurice, helping different industries with digitalization and design systems.
