experience

I have lived in London since 2000, and worked as a translation project manager between 2000 and 2005. Whilst in full-time employment, I continued translating, writing and studying. In 2004, I completed a two-year Master's course in Translation Studies and in 2005, I began translating on a freelance basis. Living outside of Finland, I keep my Finnish up-to-date by following the Finnish translation forums and Finnish media, reading Finnish literature and visiting Finland regularly.
