MyWork
I have worked on various multidisciplinary projects in the intersection of communications, media production and social impact over the past eight years. Today, I am a content production professional and a multi-skilled writer with clients in the Netherlands and Finland. English and Finnish are my primary working languages.
Journalistic & Blog Writing
My stories have been published +50 times in the biggest Finnish travel magazine Mondo, Apu-lehti, local Finnish newspapers (e.g. Helsingin Uutiset) and sustainability blog Ekoarki.
In English, I've written multiple in-dept website articles about topics such as social corporate responsibility and food security.

Copywriting, Translation & Proofreading
I have written, proofread and translated multiple website copies and blogs for companies such as digital marketing agency Spotzer and media solutions company Meltwater. I have drafted thousands of TV show and film descriptions at entertainment data provider Gracenote (Nielsen company).
Qualitative Research
I completed my Research Master's Degree at the Graduate School of Communication at the University of Amsterdam, an institution ranked as #1 in Europe in the field. I gained expertise in interviewing, content analysis, and focus groups. My Master's Thesis looked into how socially conscious films could change the perceptions of viewers about marginalized groups.
​
The fruits of my academic learnings resulted in a research study interviewing heritage and city planning experts on community engagement as part of the EU-funded OpenHeritage - project, and a co-authorship in a project description of the Innocastle -project in the Journal of European Landscapes.
Digital Campaigns & Content Creation
Many of my ideas are showcased as compelling campaigns and content on various digital channels. In the EU-funded Innocastle - project, I managed all social messaging on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. At Human Rights Watch I managed @HRWPress -Twitter account for media professionals.
Marketing & Communications Project Management
Planning and executing day-to-day communication activities, such as crafting newsletters, designing posters or simple infographics, writing press releases and managing websites is something I have done in many of my various positions.
