I graduated from the Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT) in 2004. My career path has led me through various procurement and purchasing roles globally, with a specific interest in the rapidly evolving field of indirect procurement. This area fascinates me, especially as the digitalization wave has yet to revolutionize this domain fully.
Today, I am embarking on an entrepreneurial journey as the founder of a start-up company. The initial couple of years have proven challenging yet rewarding, providing me with an unparalleled learning curve that I've thoroughly enjoyed.
I'm drawn to mentoring because I wish to guide young, ambitious students in shaping their careers and navigating paths in this ever-evolving professional landscape. After a rewarding experiences as a mentor in 2022-2024, I'm eager to reconnect with the enthusiasm and curiosity of someone on the cusp of graduation.
Studies at LUT: Industrial Engineering and Management, 2004
Mentoring language: Finnish or English
