what i can do
here’s a list of things i excel at.
art & creative direction
i’ve collaborated with in-house designers, collaborators, and contractors. i’ve excelled in maintaining a cohesive brand style, not forgetting to improve and develop the visual language along the way.
project management
i’ve worked in start-ups and scale-ups and I know how it is when you have to manage not only your own projects but also getting aligned cross-team in an agile company. i've overseen projects from coming up with initial ideas to finalizing a full-on go-to-market process.
multimedia design
my major in university was multimedia design. I’m able to produce basically every kind of marketing material there is, from print to social media, in stills, video, or multimedia experiences. layout, digital painting, video editing, and information design are my aces in design.
copywriting
i’m fantastic at writing in finnish and excellent in english. i can create great ideas, drafts, and structures, and can be ruthless when editing. i’m precise in my language but can also be whimsical if need be. i’m also proficient in utilizing generative text AIs. they don’t write well, but i can make it good.
ui/ux design
currently, i’m studying ui/ux design at metropolia university of applied sciences on the side of work. i’ve worked closely with product and development teams in SaaS companies in giving feedback and suggestions based on my own use of those tools in these companies (Smartly.io and Cavai). i’m proficient in workshopping, prototyping, ui sketching, and design thinking. i’ve also been part of a service design overhaul.
tools
i’m fast at picking up new tools. in my two previous roles, I’ve worked with internal SaaS tools, Cavai Cloud and Smartly.io. I know all that a proper multimedia designer should do: i have extensive knowledge in Adobe, Microsoft Office, and Google tools, and can also navigate in Figma, Canva, Hubspot, and WordPress. i’ve worked with tons more, and i think my superpower here is that i pick up things fast and am able to teach myself even complex tools.
interpersonal skills
i’m fine at working alone, but i’m amazing with other people. i’m a great communicator, and i take time and consideration in all of my interactions with other people, whether they’re my colleagues or clients. i’m great at giving actionable feedback and i love building culture by organizing internal events.
