FROM

Thanks to sports, I earned my college degrees with the athletic scholarships I received; I learned important life lessons of how to be a team player, how to work hard towards your goals, and how not to give up even when it feels unbearable to keep going.

+ Bio

Motivated, hard-working, curious

Elite runner turned triathlete. I was given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join a group of Canadian and American professional triathletes, and go after my goal of becoming the first Finnish Olympian in triathlon. Even though I am relatively new to the sport, I believe I have the potential to reach the highest level.
