I am a Helsinki-based, experienced architect, project lead, senior building designer and an emerging lead designer. I am in the process of relocating to Tallinn. I have worked both as part of a team in projects across the Helsinki metropolitan area and independently as a site architect. Over the past twenty years, my projects have ranged from single-family houses to individual apartment buildings and entire residential blocks.
I am proficient in BIM (Solibri) and a confident user of Archicad. I am hardworking and innovative teamplayer, determined, open-minded, and creative in solving design challenges. Alongside my work, I have also mentored trainees. I have successfully managed multiple projects simultaneously at different design stages, across a variety of types and scales, often under tight deadlines.
