You can read my interview from Forbes- magazine from here.

I have a passion to solve challenging social problems and support change. I have come a long way from being a professional musician and producer to finding more meaning for myself and life. 

 

I am Kukunor's co-founder and full-time CEO. Kukunori is a national association for culture and well-being. I also work as the CEO of Muutostoimisto Ikinori Oy, owned by Kukunori. In addition to my main job, I can offer a limited number of services as a side job through our family business, Ascolta Oy, which was founded in 1993.

 

Most of all, I am a social entrepreneur. Social entrepreneurs are experts and solvers of social issues; they are committed to the long-term development of the surrounding society and the well-being of others. The primary goal of a social entrepreneur is not to get financial gain but to solve a social problem. The goal is to do social good and be a change-maker.

 

My strengths are in implementing operating methods and developing organizational culture. My key competencies are in organizations with a developmental disability, mental health and substance abuse work, recovery-oriented work models for volunteering, employment and equality, digital platforms and services, and project-funded activities.
