Byroo was a digital advertising agency based in Helsinki (now part of Creuna). Clients included many of the biggest advertising agencies in Finland and notable brands.
Plenty of projects as a freelancer for large and small clients. I've worked around the world — in Finland, Lithuania, Spain, Portugal, France, Turkey, Malaysia, Indonesia, USA and Singapore. I've also worked with exhibitions, several small magazines, and have been an instructor and lecturer.
