It is important to me to make thoughtful choices and be thorough and detailed in my work. At the same time, despite my thorough and detailed approach, I always ensure everything gets completed on time.

I like to work in a structured and planned out manner, but unexpected challenges are always exciting — I work well under pressure. By nature, I am curious and have a vivid imagination.

My primary career goal is to always find meaning in my work and contribute with interest and care to solving real problems.

Digital Product Design BA

My studies at the Estonian Academy of Arts were very practical: every semester we worked on design studio projects under tight deadlines, several of which were commissioned client works. I learned to organize teamwork in a way that kept everyone happy, and to shape a structured design process from the research plan to the final solution.

In addition to a thorough product design education, I expanded my creative skillset through diverse electives spanning service design, ceramics, and goldsmithing.

Optional courses during academic leave

During my academic leave, I took plenty of time to get to know myself. I thoroughly thought about what I wanted in life, went for career counselling, and took elective courses to explore different fields.

I studied Marketing at the Economics Faculty, Digital Product Design at Delta Sandbox, and Fundamentals of Entrepreneurship.

Medicine

I entered the medicine programme because I love to learn. However, within a year, I realised that as a passionate, emotional, and empathetic person, I would quickly burn out working as a doctor.

That time still gave me a lot – I thoroughly studied human anatomy, biology, biophysics, biochemistry, first aid, and much more. I found medical ethics very interesting, and the thoroughly practised nursing skills will certainly be beneficial for life.

Natural Sciences Track

When I started secondary school, I chose to study natural sciences because I felt I had the most room for development in those fields. During that time, I also put a lot of effort into improving my English and Estonian language skills.
