- Developing the society-

My dream is to create more sustainable structures. For me sustainability focuses mainly on the humane dimension: human needs should be taken care of. My goals as an active citizen are quite simple, that is.

My background is in performing arts, union activities and in teaching. These backgrounds give me a combination of skills of story-telling, empathy and listening. For me it is important to put words into complex human things in a practical way. I will gladly listen to people when I have enough resources to spare. I do many voluntary things so I have to often take room for my own well-being. 

My first candidacy in Finnis municipial elections was in Turku during year 2021, after which I was also a candidate at well-being areas elections in South-West Finland during 2022. As a candidate in the first election my priorities were to ensure well-being and basic safety for all the citizens of Turku – and how to let them also have say to things that affect them. In the area elections, I spoke about the well-being areas and hwo to build them as a common, secure structure that doesn’t let anyone from South-West Finland to fall through – especially during the formation stage. I will continue with similar themes in the future elections even if the city and well-being area would change. 

I have written some blog posts to this page around the areas I have been asked to share about. In most cases somebody has specifically asked me to find out about something that interests them or I have participated in a certain even after which I have written a sort of report of it. Please continue to let me know which topics interest you and what I could write about in the future. I have only a limited amount of resources, but will still return to everything with time.

If you want to give special support in the future, there are three ways to make it happen:

1. Be in contact. Let me know if you want to help me in the future elections. Let me know of your experiences or your opinions. Those interest me.

2. Get to know about things that are important to me through past and present promises and election machines that I work with.

3. Vote in the future elections. If I am not your choice, I can help you choose yours.

Thank you for taking time to do your part!

Political History

I will collect below all the links to the relevant “election machines” that I have used in the previous elections. They will answer the practical, relevant questions that I know of, but which I have not yet had time to tell about in other contexts. If you wish to discuss with me about something that concerns me, I will gladly answer your questions and gladly also hear of opposing views. 

I have also spared to this site some of the election promises I have made I did notice at some point that these promises are good to list so I can check in with them. It will also give me some accountability: any person who has voted for me can check if I have followed through.
