I design a strategic communication plan for your organisation and support its implementation
I work with governments, decision makers, companies and organisations to develop clear goals and strategies for you. I walk with you to make sure they are implemented. Once you know where you want to go, I will help you to do it most effectively.
I also help to understand the legislation and regulations, the economics of education, and how you can influence it yourself. I have many years of experience in politics, the Finnish Parliament, government work, media cooperation and impact campaigns. Together, we identify key decision makers and influencers and create an impact plan that I support your organisation to implement.
I make events, discourses and debates successful
When you want to bring forward the people and subjects that are important to you, I plan events and facilitate them with a cheerful approach. Respectful, forward-looking conversation is a skill. Whether it is a parliamentary election panel, an advocacy seminar, business meeting or an annual meeting, let me make sure you have a successful event.
Speeches and presentations, fairs, panel discussions, seminars and interviews, let me help You!

Courses and accommodation in beautiful City of Loviisa by the sea
I organise courses with my business partners in Loviisa, Villa Omenankukka (Villa Apple blossom) only 1 hour drive from Helsinki. Also bed & breakfast available.
“When I was thinking about a name for my business, I wanted to communicate my values and goals. I value education above everything else − as it is the path to a better life, well-being and success. Finland’s future depends on what kind of early childhood education and training children and youth receive in their municipality. “Lov” also refers to Loviisa, the company’s charming and historic hometown by the sea.”
