What I'm looking for

I'm looking for customer-facing technology roles in technical account management, customer success, implementation consulting, or solutions consulting, where I can combine analytical thinking, business acumen, and communication to drive meaningful results.

At Stora Enso, I analyze end-to-end processes across interconnected systems, resolve 30–60 operational exceptions daily, and turn complex workflows into clear documentation and actionable guidance. I also partner with business and technical teams to identify root causes and improve process continuity and data integrity.

Previously at Essity and Tesla, I built Power BI reporting and planning solutions, mapped processes, and supported adoption of operational improvements. My earlier Enterprise leadership experience strengthened my customer relationship, team development, and commercial decision-making skills, and I’m focused on helping organizations connect business needs, technology, and user adoption.
