"With the voices of young people, an entrepreneurial spirit, and a vibrant archipelago, we are building the Pargas of the future!"
I am a 24-year-old resident of Pargas with a strong interest in community development. Originally from Nagu, I currently work there as well. I am studying for a Master’s degree in Economics in Turku, where I am expected to graduate this spring. On the side, I have been involved in entrepreneurship in the sales sector. I am social and work with problem-solving daily in my job, and I am convinced that these qualities are valuable in the role of an elected representative."
