Bio

I joined Mindnow in 2022, starting as a UX Design intern before moving into a Product Owner role. Since then, I’ve worked across fintech, e-commerce, AI automation, PR tech, internal tooling, 3D configuration, and personal mobility projects involving bluetooth-connected scooters. I enjoy uncovering nuances, connecting dots, and turning complexity into clarity. Before Mindnow, my background spanned mainly across marketing, hospitality, and tourism, including guiding tours across Europe, North Africa, and Asia, and working as a sledge dog guide in Finnish Lapland. Outside of work, I enjoy climbing, hiking, and multi-day bikepacking adventures, as well as the occasional good book or movie.
