      • Jun 2009 - Present

      I founded my own event management and public relations company in 2009. PR and marketing. I started off by handling PR and event marketing for Finland's biggest restaurant chain Night People Group (former SK-Restaurants) in Helsinki during spring 2009. I was in charge of special events, product launch events and international artists. My responsibilities varied from social media marketing, event production, hosting, artist hospitality and VIP. One of my favourites have been Madonna's Sticky & Sweet Tours After Party w/ DJ Enferno, Camitz Vodka Exclusive Release Event w/Christian Audigier and DJ Premier Club Event. Campaign planning. After the nightlife scene I began planning marketing campaigns for multiple different brands which I'm still doing today. My job starts by selling the idea and budget to the customer and lasts until the final report of the campaign is delivered to the customer. Basically this means that I'm responsible for the budget, the whole campaign production (can include material production, promoters, locations, media etc.), the over all result of the campaign on top of the analysis of results we accomplished. Event production. I have always been excited to create something new and so nowadays I'm looking for different kinds of events to be part of. One really exciting project is Wake The Stadium which we kicked of in the outdoor swimming stadium in Helsinki in 2014. Another interesting project I would like to be part of is Tubecon since it has huge potential to grow in Helsinki. Above one can see my biggest campaigns so far. Show less

    • Marketing Campaign / Event Producer
      • Jan 2011 - Oct 2011

      Initially I started to work with Malja as a freelancer but after 4-5 months I had proven my ability they hired me as a fulltime producer. I really enjoyed the work environment and was fortunate enough to work with the most competent people in the industry. Although event production is stressful and hard work I love doing it. Its the best feeling when you see joyful customers, satisfied clients in an event you produced. One major issue I learnt from this period was the limits of my own energy and the ability to say no.

    • Freelance Event Producer/ Sales Professional
      • Jan 2006 - Jan 2011

      I worked with multiple different brands to promote their products or to launch new ones in Finland. As a freelancer I had the freedom to choose the right agencies which helped me to deepen my expertise to the wanted direction. I started with doing B2C sales promotions and then moving towards B2B promotion. Soon I moved on to being responsible for promotion campaigns as a producer. When pulling the strings as a producer I was able to make the campaigns look great and choose the right kind of staff to increase the sales. Show less

      We have promoted artists like Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, Methdod Man, Rise Against, Pitbull, Lil Jon, Deep Purple, Talib Kweli, Flo Rida and Xzibit. The biggest concerts have been Ice Cube, Deep Purple, Snoop Dogg and Rise Against. Deep Purple and Ice Cube's concerts were organized in the Helsinki Ice-Hockey Arena. Rise Against's concert being one of my all time favorite concerts I have organized was held in the Helsinki Cable Factory. Snoop Dogg's gig was the first major outdoor rap concert ever organized in Finland. Suvilahti being an old energy production area with its harsh factory area, old rough buildings and street art -view was the perfect venue. I have been so stoked being able to do this. I'm looking forward to doing something like this in the future again! Show less
