Born in Helsinki, Finland. Spent time on boats since little following the footstep of my parents and at the age of 6 starting my optimist carear. After optimist I switched to the Zoom8 and 29er but after that deciding to switch to keelboats focusing more on matchracing and sprintsailing lthat got polular in 2017 with the Sailing Champions League kicking off. The past few years i have also spent quite a lot of time on bigger keelboats like TP52 and other similar high performance boats participating in both inshore and offshore sailing.
