About
I've been drawing since the very first moment I could hold a pen. In 2016, my creative journey kicked off with illustrations, leading me eventually to illustrate for diverse projects—books, newspapers, magazines, album covers, brand images, festival visuals—you name it!
I am a very curious person. About ten years ago, I dipped my toe into the wild world of web design for the first time. I introduced myself to different kinds of website builders out there and just started building. Over the years, I have crafted websites for various customers and gained knowledge of web design and usability.
My educational background is in marketing, holding a Bachelor of Business Administration with a major in Marketing. So, I do have some understanding from branding and business. However, let's park that for now and focus on my design.
I also hold a degree from Pekka Halonen School of Arts and Design. After graduating, I worked as a graphic designer and, every once in a while, as a visual artist. I've designed fabric patterns and created a small hand-drawn animation that circulated at art and movie festivals across Europe.
As said, I had been desiging websites for some time already, and in 2022 I applied to a Full-Stack developing Bootcamp course, got in, and ever since I have been working in Fujitsu Finland. At first I was a Software Developer in a low-code team, but quite soon it turned out that the most natural position for me is to design UIs. So, most days, you'll find me rocking it as a UI/UX designer.
