• Tallinn, Harjumaa, Estonia

• Podcaster

  • Jun 2020 - Present

  I'm a creator of the podcast Found in Estonia, where I talk with foreigners who live in Estonia. We chat about their life living abroad, why they decided to move to Estonia, and what made them stay. www.foundinestonia.ee I'm also a host for two other podcasts: YFU Eesti Maailmakodanike Podcast and Work in Estonia Talks. First focusing on sharing stories of student exchange program alumni. And the second shares two sides of the experience for expats who work in Estonia - from the international's side and from the local co-worker's side. For the podcast Found in Estonia I'm in the role of project manager, podcast host, audio production, and content marketer. I also created Print on Demand merch for the podcast and designed and produced a card game called "Epic Estonia" - www.foundinestonia.ee/epicestonia Show less

I work with Shopify to develop the website. With Klaviyo to build emails and email flows that convert. With SEO tools, to create content for the blog and to build valuable landing pages.
