I am 22-years-old student from Tampere University. I chose adult education as my major because in future I would like to work in H&R related tasks. Before coming to work to Expo I have already lived two years in Shanghai. While being in Shanghai I attended international school with American curriculum. The international atmosphere at school and the Chinese culture taught openness, surviving in new situations as well as broadened perspectives enormously.

I really like doing sports and I have played many team sports as well as coached qymnastics and soccer. From those I have learned a lot about co-operation skills, flexibility, diligency and initiativeness. When it comes to work I am always putting my best effort and I am not afraid to ask questions when needed.
