I am a native Finn with both Finnish and British nationality, educated in Finland (see my CV) and living in the Midlands in the UK, currently on a temporary posting in Finland. With strong connections to Finland, I have a solid background in the Finnish language and culture, as well as in Finnish-Swedish language and roots (finlandssvenska). I am also competent to translate from both languages into English.
I have a postgraduate degree in travel and tourism. My special interests include linguistics, grammar, psychology, behavioural sciences and transport and travel. Having had a classical education, I find the knowledge of Latin very useful, especially with English, Romance and Germanic languages.
Associate member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting ITI (UK)
