Profile

I'm a software developer interested in machine learning, functional programming and algorithm design. I currently work at IPRally as a Lead AI developer. The job entails developing efficient tools for automating patent searching, and the methods used include graph neural networks, natural language processing and graph algorithms.

I graduated from the University of Helsinki with a Master's degree in mathematics in the fall of 2014. During my studies I specialized in algebraic topology; other mathematical fields that interest me include abstract and linear algebra, graph theory and number theory.
