?? Can you please set up the scene and tell us what you see from your desk?
I can see our used-to-be jar of candies! My days at the office were irradiated by its gleaming colourfulness, before liquorice ended up being the only taste left—does anyone actually like liquorice?
?? What is the main purpose of your role?
I try my best to make the whole office’s activity smoother. Lately, it’s been mainly about running the conference and pleasing Ecsite’s friends with some jaaaazz.
?? What are you working on right now?
I’m trying to forget about sunny Malta and focus on the #IDF2023 this November in Vantaa.
?? What are the most enjoyable and challenging parts of your role so far?
The most enjoyable? Interacting with people from every corner of this world. The most challenging? Interacting with people from every corner of this world.
?? How did you end up in this position?
I was looking for a new pretext to travel and grow, and I learned about Ecsite. I think it was the right decision…

Have more candies!
