  1. Training - Path from Growth Hacking Internship to Head of Growth.
  2. Implementation - ‍CEO, board and investor training and reporting processes.
  3. Development - ‍Processes, reporting methods and a community to systematically maintain the growth culture in a startup from zero to seed and above.

I’m a self-taught human-centric growth tech nerd who started at age 12 when I received my first affiliate marketing commission from my Fallout 2 game fan page.

During my professional 20+ years I’ve been involved in growth of hundreds of clients and own projects for over 10 years in affiliate marketing and another 10 years in developing companies as a consultant or an in-house at startups and a VC firm. My sweet spot is early-stage: zero to seed/series A.

I’ve found my happy place at the iterative and constant growing world of global tech startups such as Freska, Paxful, Yousician, and now a 140M€ early-stage VC firm Icebreaker.vc with 90+ early-stage companies in Nordics and Baltics while operating as a growth advisor at my growth hacking agency Truly and training growth hacking to immigrant women at my non-profit Herizon.

If you wish to use trendy terms like growth hacking, it was my pleasant hobby back in the end of 90s and still is. ❤️

My mission is to use my skills to help startups that actually wish to make things better and be good companies for the people. I believe in Nordic values of work-life balance and equality at work.

  • Scaled multiple companies from under a 1M€ ARR to over 10M€ ARR in 2-3 years.
