Description
I'm a young furniture designer and an artist from Helsinki, Finland. I'm really interested of the Nordic countries. I'm a culture person and love all kinds of art and culture projects. I'm open for many different kinds of work, I have for example a lot of practical wood working skills since I've studied furniture design. I'm creative and capable to do for example graphic design too. My studying language has been swedish so I speak it quite well. It also helps me understand norwegian and danish :)
