"Grankulla- where small streets offer great opportunities "

I was born and raised in Grankulla. The city has always been a safe, green, and bilingual oasis for me and my family.
As a veterinarian, I care about the interaction between nature, animals, the environment, and humans. I am a versatile person who enjoys working with both hands and mind.
Equality, sustainable development, a balanced economy, quality education, and service in my native language are important to me.
Hobbies: artistic gymnastics, sailing, dogs, gardening.

Important political topics

Thriving citizens

I live in Grankulla because here I thrive. The small town’s sense of community and safety create a place where we can be ourselves and feel at home. Here, we can speak our native language and live in a town that values equality and inclusion. Our schools and early childhood education are something we can be proud of – they give all children a good start in life.

Grankulla also offers a fantastic nature that we must take care of and preserve for future generations. There are also versatile opportunities for culture and sports, which contribute to both physical and mental health. As for elderly care, we see that the quality is constantly improving so that everyone can age with dignity and security.

Grankulla is a place where we care for each other and together create a society where everyone can thrive. For me, well-being is about creating a place where everyone feels safe, included, and has the opportunity to grow.

Sustainable and attractive planning

Grankulla is a place where we should be able to live and thrive – now and in the future. Sustainable development is about thinkin long-term on how to create a town for both people and the environment. It’s about building a town where we can all feel safe, where our children have secure school routes, and where it’s easy to access healthcare, libraries, and cultural and sports facilities.

For me, sustainable development also means that we build with innovative economic solutions that create a strong foundation for the future. We need to think creatively and collaborate with different stakeholders to find new ways to develop our city in a sustainable and efficient manner.

We must preserve what makes Grankulla unique, such as our garden-suburb and our small-scale village spirit – we must also think ahead. To create a Grankulla where we can all grow and thrive, now and in the future.

Together, we can build a Grankulla that is sustainable, green, and full of opportunities for all.
