Welcome, you! Here you are about to read about my professional affiliations. Generally speaking, I am a Strategic Innovation Advisor – Reforming Digital Culture through Design, Qualitative and Data-driven Insight, and Intelligent Systems.
I work at the intersection of media design, humanistic inquiry, and emerging information technologies—where culture meets code, and futures are shaped.
As a transdisciplinary practitioner, I bring together design, critical research, and ethical engagement to reimagine how humans relate to technology. I dive into the heart of complex projects, learning from their social and cultural contexts, uncovering both clear and non-obvious objectives, and translating them into strategic and design directions.
With a PhD-level foundation in interaction design, research experience at Aalto and MIT Media Labs, and applied work in public sector and tech innovation, I help organizations shape systems and services that are as thoughtful as they are future-facing.
Currently, at Aalto University’s Department of IT Service Development, I design user-centric services that align institutional goals with human needs. I work closely with stakeholders to translate insights into implementable strategies, while advising on AI, machine learning, and data-driven development.
My approach blends speculative design, digital ethics, and posthuman perspectives—asking not only what technology can do, but what it should do in shaping more inclusive, relational, and meaningful futures.
Core themes in my work:
- Depth-Driven Design Thinking
I believe in going beyond surface-level trends to uncover enduring opportunities rooted in critical inquiry and domain knowledge. - Human & Posthuman Futures
I design with and for people—and the ecologies, technologies, and cultures that surround them. - AI, Collaboration & Culture
My current research and advisory work explores productive AI–human and AI–AI interaction models that enrich creative and collective intelligence. - From Complexity to Culture Change
I specialize in translating abstract challenges into strategic directions, fostering digital cultures that are resilient, adaptive, and ethically informed.
