I am native Finnish living in Malawi. I have been a freelancer since 2018 and gained good experience in variety of jobs.
I started with writing blogs for a company that I still work closely together with. I have been writing content, informative, creative, casino-related, advertisements, reviews and many more subjects. I can also proofread in Finnish and do translations from English to Finnish. My writing jobs are always grammatically flawless, and I give meticulous attention to detail.
I have also worked with several different kind of back office tasks such as dictations, database collection, quality control, register updates, project coordinator and many more. I enjoy customer support in different channels and can deliver a very professional service in that area.
I always respect my client’s orders. I am highly self-motivated, hard working and I can follow even the most detailed rules of the job given to me. I always follow deadlines and I do not hesitate to ask for further instructions or advice if I am not sure about something. I like to work with different people and have a good communication with my clients.

I'm a native Finnish speaker with a wide range of experience in writing SEO articles, creating content and proofreading. I love to work with my mother language in any form. Beside writiting I also work with different customer projects.
Writing has been a vital part of my career. I'm familiar with different types of factual texts. I've also written business descriptions and marketing content which I've been able to use more creativity.
Flawless grammar is essential for the work, but I'm also precise about the details and guidelines within which I have been instructed to work. I'm very deadline-orientated.
In customer work, the key to my professionalism lies in communication and the ability to react quickly, sometimes even in unpredictable situations. I read people fast and don't freeze quickly.
I'm open to any tasks, which include working in my native language. I am always interested in developing my skills on the strong foundation I already have. So let's get some work done.
