I%27ve successfully worked 20 years in international sales and marketing, leading teams, building networks, creating growth strategies, and managing operations and accounts. I’ve had the privilege of working in various industries and companies giving me great insight and experience across the board.
In addition to my home country Finland, I’ve lived in Germany, Netherlands, Belgium and the USA.
I currently head the World Trade Center Turku activity, a role that gives me the opportunity to utilize my extensive experience in international business development to help companies internationalize. I love representing a network of 300 WTCs and 15.000 international trade experts here in Finland.
I would love to work more closely with a company helping them develop their business, sales, marketing or strategy.
