<h2>📜 Profile</h2>
<p>
I am a motivated 25-year-old Complex Systems Master's student at Aalto University, passionate about leveraging technology to drive
advancements in healthcare. Last summer I gained valuable experience as a Software Development intern at GE Healthcare, where I was
actively involved in developing carbon-dioxide sensor software in C++ for their newest patient monitor. With over a year of experience as a research assistant in the
Department of Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering at Aalto, I have honed my skills in back-end development, primarily utilizing Python
and C++, to advance TMS-EEG software.
</p>
<p>
Last year I participated in an intensive health tech course, collaborating with a talented group of students to innovate a wellbeing product.
This experience further fueled my desire to contribute to the healthcare industry and address challenges through innovative technological solutions.
</p>
<p>
Driven by a deep curiosity and a commitment to continuous learning, I am dedicated to expanding my knowledge and making a positive impact within the healthcare domain.
With a strong foundation in biomedical engineering and a passion for problem-solving, I am excited to explore new opportunities and drive meaningful advancements in
technology.

<h2>🌍 Experience</h2>
<h3>GE Healthcare - Software development internship</h3>
<p>
Back-end development in C++ for patient monitor micro-mainstream carbon-dioxide sensors. This experience taught me
Agile development in scrum teams, meeting deadlines as well as documenting and reporting my progress.
</p>
<h3>Aalto University Dept. of Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering</h3>
<p>
Backend developer for closed-loop TMS-EEG applications in Python and C++
using ROS2. Improved my knowledge of Docker, GitHub, ROS2, and
biomedical instrumentation.
</p>
<h3>Aalto University Dept. of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering</h3>
<p>
Teaching assistant in Python programming and Quantum Phenomena. The cornerstones of these experiences were interaction
with others, communication, and a deeper understanding of the concepts of object oriented programming and Quantum physics.
</p>
<h3>Skillgrower Oy</h3>
<p>
Developed problems for various high school math courses in LaTeX. This experience
required a lot of creative and analytical thinking.

<h2>🏆 Projects</h2>
<h3>Innovation challenge</h3>
<p>
In a six-week group project, we developed YouBetterTrain, a new product for Gluce, a German company.
Our journey involved extensive research, interviews with experts, creating business and pricing models,
competitor analysis, market research, customer identification, and a pitch to investors at Bayer headquarters.
This immersive experience gave me valuable insights into health tech innovation and product launch.
</p>
<h3>My own website</h3>
<p>
As a hobby, I programmed this website from scratch using three.js — a JavaScript library for 3D graphics.
</p>
<h3>Growth House - Author</h3>
<p>
For the past year, I have been writing an autofiction book with a friend of mine. We aim to publish it in 2025.
</p>
<h3>Programming projects</h3>
<p>
I have worked on software development projects such as a tower defense game in C++, a strategy game in Python,
and a web software application in JavaScript.
</p>
<h3>Machine learning projects</h3>
<p>
During the course 'Decision Support in Healthcare', I developed a machine learning model that predicts cardiac failures based on patient monitor data, one that predicts
diabetes based on various biomarkers, and one that uses data from a gyroscope to determine the nature of human activity.

<h2>Hobbies</h2>
<p>
In my spare time, I find joy in engaging in creative pursuits and sports. Writing songs, particularly in the rap genre, has been a passion of mine,
and I've even completed an entire album. Volleyball holds a special place in my heart, as it represents teamwork and physical fitness. Additionally,
I enjoy reading, playing the guitar, and spending time with my friends. Recently, I've taken an interest in enhancing my programming skills and using
them to engineer practical solutions for everyday challenges, aiming to improve my overall quality of life. My most recent project is training for the
upcoming 2024 Helsinki City Marathon.
