I am a postdoctoral researcher of social and health management with an interest in public management and good governance, especially in the complex social and healthcare systems.

I am currently working on the Welgo project, which aims to understand the coordination mechanisms, legitimacy and resilience of pandemic management. I also study good governance and the conflict of interest policies. In the past, for example, I have worked on a study commissioned by the European Parliament on the effectiveness of conflict of interest policies in EU Member States. I have also worked on conflict of interest and good governance in new welfare counties in Finland for the think tank Libera.

I am an editor of the scientific journal "Hallinnon Tutkimus " (Administrative Studies), published by the Finnish Association for Administrative Studies. Previously, I worked for the association as a treasurer for three years.

I have experience in higher education administration and digital development of university teaching. I have seven years of experience in teaching and supervision (undergraduate, post-graduate, and doctoral). I have been responsible for educational development, planning and project management. I have worked on the TRY project (Second Route to University) of the Open University of Vaasa, where a fully digital HTK degree in public administration education was created. My tasks have also included the development of a Master's programme in Social and Health Care Management into a digital programme.

Over the years, I have taught 16 courses, about 30 times in total. In addition, I have worked as a digital mentor at the University of Vaasa's School of Management (one year). I have acted as a contact person for postgraduate students in the doctoral programme and was responsible for the student Personal Study Plans (HOPS) in administrative sciences.
