I’m responsible for financial services in Finland, Sweden, and Denmark at BearingPoint. My core consulting areas are regulatory reporting risk management and data management, and I have strong product and architecture knowledge of banking and capital markets.

My passion is combining data, functional architecture and proper business documentation to enable change by a fit-to-purpose delivery organization.

All my engagements have been at the intersection of business and technology, starting from pre-studies and road maps and ending with large-scale regulatory and data transformations with everything in between.

I started my professional career in 2007 as a bank teller at the largest bank in the Nordics. I quickly moved to the operational risk department of the Markets division, where I was first responsible for an internal control systems' production.

I then developed the control system covering new products in the role of an operational risk representative within the common markets data warehouse initiatives. This sparked my interest in technology and moved theory closer to practice, which is why I joined BearingPoint in 2011. At BearingPoint, I founded our Finnish, Swedish and Danish Financial Service consulting practice.
