A Green forestry student. The youngest councillor in Northern Savonia.
Youth interests, the environment and animals.
Standing for those and always against the conservative voices of yesterday.

About me
I joined the Greens in the spring of 2019. Those were the heydays of the global climate movement, and I too got the courage to take part in a climate strike. I was studying in Kuopio - A city that was full of excitement about the then upcoming parliamentary elections.
I talked with all the party activists, but only the Green ones made a lasting impression on me. I had found my political home! A home that always cares about the environment.
Since then I've amassed a ton of great memories, acquaintances and political experience. Below is a peek of all the political positions I've come to hold.
