⚧️ My most important values are righteousness, human rights, equality, parity and impartiality. I champion for underpriviliedged and don’t pursue my own interests.

🪄 I want to make sure that children have a safe everyday life in Joensuu and North Karelia:

📚 There’s a need for sufficient resources for learning support, small class sizes in order for adults to have time to meet each child as an individual and recognize possible challenges and to direct to help. Here personnel in daycare and schools have a significant role. Thus, their well-being needs to be attended to.

🩹 There’s a need for preventive and low-threshold services. Families need support in parenthood and coping with everyday life. Too many child has been forced to leave their home because their parents haven’t received help for their mental health problems, excessive substance use or violent behavior. This needs to be changed.

🧩 I am solution oriented and cooperative, I take action and familiarize myself with new things. I combine knowledge with humanity.

🌱 I work as a university researcher at the School of Forest Sciences of the University of Eastern Finland. On my free time I ski, bike and walk in nature, enjoy culture in theater and exhibitions, and read books and listen to e-books.

✨ Everybody should be safe in their everyday life. It’s the duty of us adult to make sure that children will thrive in Joensuu and North Karelia.

🌈 Decisions made today affect tomorrow of our children. They cannot participate in decision making thus, we adults need to ensure their voices are being heard.
