I take care of the Institute’s finances and personnel, and in general, make sure things run smoothly in the background. The Foundation’s activities in Finland are also among my responsibilities. Coordinating the Institute’s popular Finnish language courses are my specialty. If you have questions about these matters, don’t hesitate to contact me!
