I have performed with the Scandinavian HUNKS since 2007 already. I joined the group driven by a burning desire to perform, as well as by virtue of curiosity to see and experience the world on the road.

In high school, I became interested in fitness training and I started to do martial arts inspired by a couple of my friends. The future was still open. I found work at a storage facility and took a year-long Military Police Officer training at the Finnish Defence Forces. I was still looking for my place in the world. Alongside of work, I took a gym instructor training and applied to various schools.

When I heard that the HUNKS group was looking for new talents to join their group, I jumped to the opportunity and applied for the part. After multi-stage qualifying process, I was chosen from 50 applicants. Now, years later, I still enjoy performing and I do this with my heart, due to the love to this performance.

In spite of the tribulations, I always believe that things tend to work out in the end. That’s why I try to find joy and positivity from everything that life brings to me. As a performer, I would also like to give the audience a dose of that good, positive energy fueling my own life. The smile has become my trade mark – and it is genuine.

Five facts about me:

• I have a Bachelor’s Degree in rehabilitation.
• I also work with as an occupational therapist, a personal trainer, as well as a freelance model.
• I am a huge Jean-Claude van Damme fan.
