About me

As a part of our Corporate Governance team, I advise our clients on corporate law. Additionally, I have significant experience in advising on mergers and acquisitions, investments and joint venture arrangements. I have advised both domestic and international companies across a range of sectors.

In addition to major law firms, I have worked in the corporate legal team of a Nasdaq-Helsinki-listed company during a secondment. I gained invaluable experience of how a large corporation works and what needs it has as regards legal services. This confirmed my thinking that a lawyer should be solution-oriented and focus on finding the right way forward instead of dwelling on problems. This is exactly the kind of lawyer I strive to be.

Before deciding to pursue law studies, I graduated with a degree in journalism and mass communication and worked as a newspaper journalist. During those years, I learned the ropes of gathering information, conducting research, and expressing myself in writing – each a skill that comes in handy when working as a lawyer.
