About Me

I am an Executive Coach, Leadership & Organizational Advisor, and Board Professional with 20+ years of experience in international operations, organizational development, and senior leadership. I work with leaders, management teams, and organisations navigating complexity, growth, and change — combining strategic perspective with operational depth and a human-centred approach. Through Coach Me & More, I support executives, entrepreneurs, and leadership teams across private and public sector organisations. My work spans executive coaching, team development, organizational transformation, and strategic advisory. I hold an ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC) certification and have 600+ documented coaching hours with 200+ leaders and professionals. My executive background includes 12 years at Paf, where I led international customer operations across seven language markets and four countries, driving transformation and building high-performing teams. I also co-founded and led Worklandia, an entrepreneurial co-working community in Åland. I am a certified board member (HHJ – Hyväksytty Hallitus Jäsen) with broad board experience across commercial, non-profit, and industry association contexts. Current engagements include Vaasan Yrittäjät and Project Liv ry (Vice Chairman). Previous board roles include Bab Västerläge Ab (Chairman 2013–2017), Åland Tourist Map Ab, Paf New Business, Ålands Bostadsrättsförening, and JCI Mariehamn (Local President 2014), as well as serving on the Ethics Committee of ICF Finland. I am fluent in Swedish, English, and Finnish.
