I'm a BSc in computer science with mathematics as my minor. This fall and next spring I will be on leave inorder to complete my civil service duty to the goverment of Finland. Afterwards I will continue studying at the University of Helsinki for a master's degree. I work part-time as a web programmer for Alma Media, developing the popular TV guide site Telkku.com. At my leisure, I spend time chilling-out with friends, watching mostly good movies, listening to my limited-taste music and playing strategy-based PC-games like Civilization.
