About

I work across digital transformation, automation, AI-assisted workflows, and web implementation. My projects usually sit between strategy and operations: mapping processes, reducing manual work, building useful systems, and getting ideas into practical delivery.

Since 2011, I have worked across different structures: as an independent freelancer, as a shareholder and co-founder, and in long-term collaborative setups across media, culture, research, public institutions, foundations, and commercial organizations.

I am open to different working models, including project-based work and part-time in-house roles, and I work comfortably both remotely and on site. I am especially interested in future-oriented organizations that think beyond legacy structures and are willing to build better ways of working.
