Bio

In 2006 I was at the crossroads between old and new. I saw the acronym CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) on my colleague's screen and realised for the first time in my life that companies can be a force for good. This moment kicked-off my sustainability journey. Head of Consulting & Founding Partner of Ethica, an award winning circular economy consultancy working internationally across private and public sectors. Experienced speaker, writer & teacher and an absolute fan of systems thinking. Facilitated EcoDesign Sprints in Finland, Sweden, Germany, Estonia, Lithuania and Russia. Keynotes e.g. at Reunion Island Circular Forum 2016, World BioMarkets Forum Amsterdam 2017, Beijing International Innovation Forum 2017 and Berlin Circular Design Forum 2018. Expert in the Finnish Industrial Symbiosis Network (FISS) and Solved Cleantech Network. International experience in Circular Economy, Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainability and Social Entrepreneurship and over 20 years' experience on teaching, lecturing & running workshops. A former idealist who've turned into an optimistic realist. First career in contemporary dance.
