University Lecturer in Language Technology and Digital Language Studies. I’m working as a part of the TurkuNLP research group focusing on language technology and natural language processing (NLP) related topics. I got my MSc degree in 2014 and PhD in 2024 (computer science, University of Turku).

Teaching

I'm involved in teaching language technology related courses at the Department of Computing and Digital Language Studies. I have completed a 25 ECTS study module in university pedagogy between years 2019 and 2021.

Research

My research focuses on language technology, with a particular interest in machine learning based methods for Finnish language processing. I also greatly enjoy and value elementary corpus work and data annotation.
