I'm a design professional, and these are the things I’m really good at
1. Mobile application design
I’ve designed numerous native and hybrid applications for both iOS and Android platforms. I have extensive experience especially with mobile phones, but also in designing for tablets. I’m very familiar with Apple’s and Google’s design guidelines, and I always ensure accessibility is taken into account in my design work.
2. Design leadership
I have several years of experience leading design teams of over 10 people. I’m highly experienced in motivating others and skilled at facilitating team collaboration. I also enjoy working closely with Product Owners and business stakeholders. One of the services I led the design team for, Suomi.fi, has won multiple public sector awards.
3. AI-driven design
I’m at my best when designing meaningful and lovable user experiences for digital products. In my design work, I also draw on a broad understanding of modern technological possibilities in service implementation. I leverage AI-driven workflows and design systems to streamline design processes and ensure scalable, consistent user experiences.
4. Conceptual design
I get excited when I get to design innovative service concepts. I boldly embrace the future and, with a strong focus on end users, create forward-looking digital services and products. I’m also a big fan of utilising modern technology for rapid prototyping.
