"Create a Kaskinen where even young people want to stay "
Born and raised in Kaskinen, proud mother of two adult children. I am a solutions-oriented and creative individual who finds peace and inspiration in the stillness of nature through hiking. I highly value honesty and collaboration, and I always strive to build strong and trustworthy relationships.
With an openness to new ideas and a strong desire to contribute to societal development, I am committed to shaping a better future for coming generations. My work is characterized by a deep sense of responsibility and strong community engagement. With five years of experience in the Department of Education in Kaskinen, I have had the opportunity to work with development, education, and creating value for my hometown. My background helps me understand complex issues and turn ideas into reality that truly matter.
A vote for me is also a vote for a cohesive team. We are efficient and bring together a wide range of collective expertise, as well as complementary strengths. We make things happen, do not hesitate to turn every stone, and are not afraid to tackle uncomfortable issues.
Important political topics
Children, Youth, and Families
Children and youth are the heart of our future. By investing in them, we invest in a stronger, more sustainable, and more inclusive society. Focusing on children and young people means providing them with the right tools, support, and opportunities to grow and thrive.
It’s about creating a safe and inspiring environment where they feel valued and heard. Promoting their mental and physical well-being, ensuring access to culture and sports, and strengthening their self-esteem and creativity are equally important. Additionally, it’s essential to listen to their ideas and give them influence over issues that impact their future. When children and young people feel included, they grow into responsible, committed, and innovative citizens.
By investing in them today, we shape tomorrow’s leaders, visionaries, and compassionate individuals. 🌟
Thriving citizens
When residents feel well, a positive spiral is created that impacts the entire city. People who are well are more productive, engaged, and willing to contribute to society. They actively participate in local activities, support local businesses, and build stronger communities.
A city that prioritizes the health and quality of life of its residents also attracts more people to move there, which strengthens the economy and diversifies culture. When individuals feel safe and valued in their environment, their willingness to invest in the city's future—both economically and socially—grows.
It’s not just about physical health but also mental and emotional balance. By creating green spaces, supporting cultural and recreational activities, and offering access to education and healthcare, a city can thrive on all levels. It’s a win-win for both the individual and the community.
