About

I am a graphic designer and content creator based in Turku, Finland. I make social media ads and motion graphics, especially for restaurants and local brands — from script to shoot, edit and finished post.

My work also includes print and digital graphics: posters, business cards and campaign visuals. I like taking an idea from raw material to a polished result that looks like the brand.

Open to new projects and internships.
