I turn AI into
real tools.
I'm a special education teacher who codes. I use AI every day for course production, assessment design, Wilma and itslearning routines, and personal agents that do actual background work.

Profile
A special ed teacher who got tired of doing the same thing by hand.
I teach ICT at Helsinki Business College: programming, cybersecurity, IT support and a lot of practical student work. I have an MSc in Computer Science and over 15 years in vocational teaching.
AI is not a keynote topic for me. It's a work tool. I've built my own Hermes agent, automated Wilma and itslearning routines, published an open AI course, and used agent pipelines to produce course materials, assignments, rubrics and teacher guides. I wrote a blog series about building my own agent.
Qualifications: vocational teacher (Haaga-Helia, 2013) · vocational special education teacher (Haaga-Helia, 2018).
Also: OAJ council deputy member · shop steward · admin of a 19,000+ teacher community · member of the Finnish National Agency for Education AI working group.
AI & agents
Not demos. Working tools.
I build agents that retrieve information, use tools and leave an audit trail. If it only works on stage, it is not done.
Automation
Less pointless clicking
Wilma, itslearning, booking systems and other login-protected routines. The human decides; the script handles the mechanical work.
Pedagogy
The course still has to teach
Bloom's taxonomy, constructive alignment, accessibility and differentiation — built into assignments, assessment and student instructions.
Training & pricing
AI training that leaves you with tools — not a slide deck.
Content is tailored to your audience: concrete tools, real examples, and skills that stay in use after the training. Start with a light introduction or book a full agent sprint.
Want to try it yourself first? AI Fundamentals is my open, free 27-lesson course (in Finnish). In trainings, the same content is tailored to your work.
Most popular
Half-day workshop
A deeper dive: prompting, tool comparison, agent structure and a concrete plan for what your team can adopt the very next day.
- Industry-tailored example tour
- Materials and exercises to keep
- Recording by agreement
Custom program
Multi-day training program
For example an AI academy for leadership or an expert team. Designed together around your needs, schedule and budget.
Privacy: all work is privacy-first — minimal data, in your environment, and without unnecessary transfer of student data to external services.
Projects
These are not concept slides.
I built these for my own work or real use. That means the boring parts matter too: logs, errors, maintenance and limits.
Personal AI agent
2025–Hermes agent
My everyday agent: morning briefs, monitoring, bookings and markdown memory. No mysticism — just many small tools behind one interface.

2025–AI Fundamentals course
An open course where AI is learned by doing. 27 lessons, student and teacher materials, and a site generator. The material was made with AI, and I don't hide that.

2025Moodle course audit
A tool that reads a Moodle backup and shows where the course leaks: structure, Bloom levels, curriculum coverage, duplicates and fix effort. A report, not a prose exercise.

An AI project that needs to work in production?
I take on training, consulting and delivery requests — especially when the solution needs to fit real work and stay in daily use, not just be a demo.
