About me

I am an AI-driven visual creator, educator, and speaker from Finland—shaping the future of image-making by blending deep creative experience with cutting-edge artificial intelligence. As a father, husband, and passionate innovator, I bring human connection into every pixel while pushing the boundaries of what’s visually possible.

Today, my work revolves around helping individuals, teams, and brands harness the power of AI in creative production. Through hands-on workshops, masterclasses, and strategic consulting, I empower creatives and professionals to navigate and lead in this new visual era. Whether it’s building high-end AI-generated campaigns, designing educational programs, or producing impactful imagery, my approach is rooted in storytelling, strategy, and experimentation.

Backed by a global network of collaborators and years of experience in visual communication, I turn complex ideas into clear, compelling visuals—guided by the belief that if you can imagine it, you can build it.
