Yhteenveto

I am an experienced team lead and agile software development
professional. My goal is to help people and software teams
improve and achieve great results. Effective teams are key to
thriving people, successful companies, and happy customers.

People come first in my world. The rest comes as the result of
enabled and supported people working together towards
meaningful goals. Business is nothing but the people and nothing
without the people. It makes sense to me to approach work
through the values, practices, and tools of agile, lean, and DevOps.

Having a strong technical background from both academia and my
early days as developer improves my ability to support
development teams as I know what it is like to code.
