I started my career as a composer and sound designer already in the early 1980’s. My work covers music and sound design for a wide range of different kind of media, performances and works of art, including contemporary dance, theatre, short films, radio plays, art installations and new media. My current research and production work, the Soundscape of New Children's Hospital in Helsinki, was awarded with Grand Prix in ISA2019, Hamburg. 

I have been a keyboard player in various bands, including Juhlavammat, Cartes Art Machine and Stratovarius. I have been a visiting teacher at the Sibelius Academy, Theatre Academy and a part-time teacher at Helsinki University Dept. of Musicology. 

Since 2001 I have been working as a (2022-> Senior) University Lecturer of sound design and music, being in charge of Sound in New Media Master's studies in Media Lab Helsinki, Aalto University, where I am also a member of SOPI (Sound and Physical Interaction) research group. I have been awarded by the student union as Teacher of the Year in the School of Art and Design in 2004 and 2010, and with a Honorary Mention in 2025.

In 2022 I was invited to join the board of Finnish Society for Acoustic Ecology (SAES). Since 2025 I'm a Doctoral Researcher in University of Helsinki, in Doctoral Programme of Philosophy, Arts and Society.
