Partner

I am a Partner and was previously the Managing Partner of Clearwater Finland between 2007-2018. I have extensive experience that covers M&A, financial structuring, and fundraising projects within the Industrials, Consumer, Healthcare, and Construction related spaces. Before my investment banking career, I worked in various finance and accounting-related roles.

I hold an M.Sc. (Econ.) degree in finance from the Aalto University School of Business in Helsinki and an MBA from the Moore School of Business, USA.

In my free time, I enjoy various outdoor activities such as golfing, cross-country skiing and mushroom hunting.
