About me
My work at Castrén & Snellman focuses on assisting our domestic and international clients in questions and projects related to data privacy and technology.
I have drafted and negotiated various commercial agreements and advise clients on data protection obligations and documentation.
I graduated with a Master of Laws from the University of Lapland in 2016 and I have studied law at the University of Canberra in Australia. Prior to joining Castrén & Snellman, I worked at an international audit firm where I gained experience in business law and completed court training at the District Court of Länsi-Uusimaa in 2018. In addition, I completed a data protection officer training programme in 2021.
I serve on the board of the Finnish IT Law Association and I am a member of the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP) and Junior Chamber International Helsinki.
The world has undergone tremendous changes in technology in recent years. My job is to enable the client’s business-oriented needs, taking into account the requirements of a rapidly changing environment and helping the client achieve their goals. I am genuinely interested in new technologies such as blockchains and artificial intelligence, and very keen to find value-added solutions for clients. I take a systematic and very practical approach to work.
