I am a part of the Unforgettable magazine’s production team and I function as a translator and copywriter for the UMG web magazine. My favorite things to make as a graphic designer are book covers and posters. In my free time I express myself by drawing, painting and pole dancing.

In the UMG-project I work as a second photographer and as a head editor of Muotoutuva magazine. In UMG web magazine I am a content developer. After living in Rovaniemi for five years now, I think I am here to stay for good. On my leisure I enjoy doing ice swimming and taking people’s pictures (secretly).

In the UMG project, I work as a treasurer as well as a content provider and an illustrator. I’m a layout artist with pinpoint accuracy and an illustrator with sense of color.
