What I’m doing now
This is a now page (thanks Derek).
I'm currently putting the finishing touches on my first children's book, which I've created with the help of AI technology. It's been an interesting process, learning how to blend traditional storytelling with new tools. More details will come soon as I get closer to completion.

Job
I'm currently navigating two roles in my professional life, each offering its own set of challenges and rewards.
At Aava & Bang (Finland), I serve as the Digital Solutions Manager. My day-to-day involves developing web solutions that are focused on user experience and efficiency. It's a collaborative effort, where I work closely with our team and clients to ensure we deliver projects that truly meet their needs and expectations. It's about solving problems and making digital spaces more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
Meanwhile, at Stolt (London, England), my responsibilities as CTO involve steering our digital strategy, particularly for our line of award-winning commuter backpacks. The goal is to improve our online presence and e-commerce capabilities, ensuring we offer a seamless and engaging customer experience. It's a continuous journey of learning and adapting to better serve our community.
In both positions, my goal is simple: to contribute positively to the projects I'm part of and to learn from the challenges and successes along the way. It's about putting in the work, being open to new ideas, and remembering that at the heart of technology and design is the desire to improve people's lives.

A Short History of Nearly Everything by American-British author Bill Bryson. Despite several changes to scientific knowledge (primarily due to new discoveries and updated classifications), the book was definitely worth reading and gave me many insights to general areas of sciences such as chemistry, paleontology, astronomy, and particle physics.
