As a Computational Design Specialist at Ramboll, I leverage my advanced technical abilities in C#, .NET, Grasshopper/Rhino, Revit, and AutoCAD to create innovative, parametric, and dynamic solutions that significantly enhance the efficiency and sustainability of design workflows. My work involves the development of cutting-edge tools like Dolphin, Solar Optimizer, Walrus, and Cheetah, which streamline processes, encourage sustainable design, and reduce manual labor, thereby saving design hours and cutting costs while enhancing job satisfaction.My role extends beyond technical skills as I lead projects and foster innovation within Ramboll, a large organizational environment. I actively contribute to business development, share insights through LinkedIn, where my posts have garnered significant engagement, and mentor my peers, establishing myself as a thought leader in computational design. This collaborative and leadership approach not only advances our internal processes but also sets a benchmark in the industry.In energy systems consultancy, my expertise in solar power, heat pumps, refrigeration, and HVAC systems, combined with my design proficiency, delivers comprehensive and sustainable solutions. My approach not only benefits Ramboll but can significantly contribute to the growth and efficiency of other businesses looking for innovative solutions to complex design and energy challenges, ensuring a future where design is both fun and environmentally conscious.

As a HVAC/Refrigeration Designer, I specialized in the creation and modification of building information models (BIM), focusing on the design of efficient HVAC and refrigeration systems and heat pumps. I utilized my skills in AutoCAD, Revit, and Excel, developing automated workflows to enhance precision and efficiency in cooling energy and power simulations. My role significantly contributed to streamlining design processes, ensuring energy efficiency, and reducing costs, which not only improved project outcomes but also set a standard for sustainable design practices in the industry.

As a Designer Trainee in the pyrotechnical unit, I was involved in drafting with AutoCAD, assessing pyrotechnical requirements, and creating an AutoCAD template with AutoLISP, now used in all pyrotechnic projects. This role enhanced my technical skills and understanding of safety standards in civil applications, contributing to the efficiency and safety of pyrotechnical design processes.

At Fyfy.io, I was part of a dedicated team of cryptocurrency enthusiasts working to develop the Solana-based FYFY Token aimed at enhancing banking systems by reducing transaction times and costs.In my role at Fyfy.io, I transitioned from an initial advisory capacity to a leadership role as a Scrum Master, guiding a seven-member DevOps team. This experience taught me valuable leadership skills, emphasizing the importance of agile project management, effective team collaboration, and strategic planning in a startup environment.Despite initial enthusiasm and a successful seed funding round, the startup faced challenges, leading to its closure. This experience, however, enriched my understanding of startup dynamics, funding, and the regulatory landscape, contributing valuable insights into the complexities of launching a tech startup in the cryptocurrency space.

During my tenure as a Designer Trainee at Åfry (formerly Pöyry), I embarked on a comprehensive learning journey in the mechanical and piping unit, focusing on the 3D modeling and generation of drawings for pipe supports. This position, serving as my introduction to the professional world, allowed me to work on multiple projects aimed at creating new industry factories across Europe. My primary tools in this endeavor were Autodesk AutoCAD, Autodesk Revit, and PDMS Draft.This role was pivotal as it marked my first foray into parametric design, a field that has since become a cornerstone of my professional expertise. Under the guidance of two Revit experts from Autodesk, I was part of a team that developed parametric families, exploring the capabilities and potential of Revit software. This experience was invaluable, not only in mastering these tools but also in understanding their practical application in designing equipment typically used in paper mills.My time at Åfry was instrumental in shaping my approach to design and engineering, providing a solid foundation in parametric modeling, and instilling a deep appreciation for innovative and efficient design solutions. This early exposure has been crucial in defining my career path and continues to influence my work, underscoring the importance of detail-oriented design and the potential of technology in engineering.

During my time at Sappi Finland Operations Oy, I held the position of Process Operator, where I was deeply involved in the paper manufacturing process. Over the course of one year and five months, I operated semi-automatic machines engineered by Valmet and Wärtsilä.My responsibilities were diverse and evolved over time; initially, I was part of a team operating a paper-cutting machine, which demanded teamwork and precision. In the following year, I took on the responsibility of managing a rewinding machine independently, showcasing my ability to adapt and work autonomously.This role required rigorous 3-shift work and daily commutes from Espoo to Lohja, demonstrating my commitment and work ethic. My tenure at Sappi was marked by significant hands-on experience in a fast-paced industrial environment, contributing to my understanding of manufacturing processes and teamwork dynamics​​.

Study on the effects of the process of applying for authorisation for chemicals on the authorisation list.14 Finnish companies and a national competent authority were interviewed by Aalto University students to find out how the process of applying for authorization to continue using chemicals that are on the authorisation list of REACH affected them. The study, commissioned by ECHA, identified improved networking of companies who participated in consortiums, improved worker protection, accelerated substitution and increased awareness of the safety aspects of alternatives in some of the companies. The report highlights the importance of an effective flow of information between all relevant actors (applicants, suppliers, customers, consultants, sector associations, and authorities). The report also gives an overview of the time and cost distribution companies had to invest in their applications. According to the report, companies have not passed on the costs of applications for authorisation to their customers.The presentation of this research has been represented in REACH Conference Prague in the year 2017.Link:https://echa.europa.eu/documents/10162/13637/aalto_report_afa_impacts_en.pdf/f11f31c0-1201-a8b2-b08f-9ce1e1a39e53
