Before hair styling and eyelash extensions, I did a 7-years-long 'career' in office. I’m a BBA (bachelor of business administration), graduated from Laurea University Espoo in 2007 and since then worked in an office. Accounting, credit management, finance controlling.. Seven years of debit and credit, hundreds of emails, booking templates, endless excel workbook jungles, reports, always fire under my bum, meetings, projects, hurry, hurry hyrry, deadline, hurry, stress and then that all mighty SAP. Know what? Couldn't do it anymore. Murr!

 

You only live once, some wise men / women say, and you got have the courage to do what you want and enjoy. So finally in 2014, I took a hammer in my pretty hand and put my life into renovation. 

 

Why such a dramatic change in career?

I’ve always (always!) loved doing stuff with my hands. Arts & crafts and sewing was my strongest subjects from elementary to high school. I still enjoy drawing and doing different kinds of handicrafts at home. I guess I never appreciated those qualities myself though – I thought I needed a real job in an office, I thought that was what adults do. Now for the first time in my life, I do what I love and enjoy.
