As a professional singer & musician, singing teacher, voice & artist coach, voice over artist, music educator & choir leader, creativity & spiritual coach, mindset, life & business coach for artists, I have a lot of titles and wear a lot of hats. How all of these got together, has been quite an interesting journey! 

As a lifelong learner, I never stop learning! I hold a Master’s degree in Music Education from the Sibelius-Academy at the University of the Arts in Helsinki, studied Jazz and World Music at Codarts in Rotterdam, trained as a Complete Vocal Technique Teacher at Complete Vocal Institute in Copenhagen, am currently following a Creativity Coach training with Dr. Eric Maisel, and have followed courses and trainings in various creative fields, including music education and vocal pedagogy, voice and musical instruments including the piano, flute and Brazilian percussion, various music styles, vocal methodologies, vocal improvisation and creativity coaching. Another big school has been all the experience I’ve gotten and continue to get as performer and theatre maker, coach, consultant and strategist for artists and teachers. 

Over the past 20+ years, I’ve been a singing teacher and vocal coach for aspiring and professional singers and actors, a theatre maker and vocal coach for talent development productions, a Complete Vocal Technique teacher, choir leader, a music education trainer for teachers, and a teacher of voice and music interpretation at performing arts institutes like Codarts University of the Arts Music Theatre department in Rotterdam (NL). 

As a singer, musician and performer, I’ve toured Dutch theaters with my own show, played in bands, contemporary dance and  theatre productions, entertained as a singer-pianist, performed fully improvised concerts, sang in choirs and a cappella groups. 

Finnish-born and multi-lingual (fluent in 4 and speak 3 more), a big part of my life and creative career has been international as I’ve lived abroad for 20+ years! I recently relocated back to my roots, and am excited about building a local community of artists in Helsinki as well as continuing my international work online and with resident workshops and retreats.
