About Me

I bring operational discipline from higher military education and service as a reserve officer, translating systems thinking into reliable neurotech program delivery. My MA studies in Recreation Management inform how I design and manage therapeutic interventions that blend evidence-based practice with human-centered experience.
As a business consultant and e-commerce owner, I build operations infrastructure, data-informed processes, and resource optimization models that keep programs scalable and sustainable. I also teach State Defence in high school, using that platform to advance youth education and awareness about neurological health, prevention, and community resilience.
I lead a sports club that delivers complex events with volunteers and partners—experience I now apply to coordinating multi-stakeholder therapeutic programs, community engagement, and outcome tracking. My background in event planning, fundraising, and partner relations maps directly to clinical program operations, stakeholder management with clinics, research institutions, and funders, and rigorous resource allocation for evidence-based interventions.

Why I Joined

I wanted to help build an international neurotech health initiative from the start and ensure it delivers measurable improvements in quality of life for people living with Parkinson’s. My years managing NGOs prepared me to scale clinical interventions responsibly—setting up governance, standard operating procedures, and partnerships that translate research into accessible community programs.

What I Enjoy

I enjoy strategic planning for scale and long-term sustainability—defining roadmaps, KPIs, and feedback loops that guide fast, accountable execution. Our team’s diverse strengths across science, operations, and community work let us collaborate efficiently and move quickly together to deliver real health outcomes.

Personal Connection

My grandmother led Narva Parkinsoni Selts for many years. Continuing her work through neurotech-enabled programs keeps me focused on practical impact for patients, families, and local communities.

Personal Touch

I’m a Scorpio — friendly by default, joking hard when needed.

Overview

I am a marketing leader focused on positioning neurotech health interventions for Parkinson’s disease. From a CMO perspective, I translate complex science into clear value propositions and trusted patient experiences, aligning product, brand, and go-to-market to drive awareness, adoption, and measurable impact.

Current Roles

I bring this CMO lens to my work as Programme Director for Entrepreneurship and Digital Solutions at the University of Tartu Narva College, where I connect academic rigor with market needs and venture pathways. I also serve as a reporter for ETV+, enabling multi-channel storytelling and public engagement around health and innovation. Previously, I held leadership roles at the Narva Museum Foundation, Vaba Lava Narva Theatre Centre, and Startup Estonia, building partnerships and ecosystems across culture, public sector, and startups.

Market Positioning and Brand Strategy

• Define brand architecture and messaging for neurotech platforms supporting Parkinson’s care.
• Build evidence-led narratives that resonate with patients and caregivers while aligning with clinician standards and research protocols.
• Shape category positioning and differentiation to earn trust with researchers, funders, and policymakers and to unlock pilots and partnerships.
• Translate research outputs into patient-centered value propositions and service blueprints—from onboarding to long-term engagement.

Stakeholder Engagement, Community, and Partnerships

• Patients and caregivers: create accessible language, health literacy resources, and empathic communications that reduce stigma and support informed decisions.
• Clinicians and researchers: co-develop pathways for trials, data sharing, and validation; design communication that fits clinical workflows.
• Funders and policymakers: align outcomes with public health priorities and reporting needs; craft clear impact stories backed by data.
• Ecosystem building: leverage experience from Startup Estonia to convene startups, NGOs, and the public sector; use cultural institutions and community venues to reach diverse and underserved audiences; integrate academic partnerships with the University of Tartu for education, evaluation, and talent pipelines.
• Public media and storytelling: activate campaigns through television, community events, and digital channels to broaden reach and trust.

Growth Strategy and Go-to-Market

• Segment markets by needs across patients, caregivers, clinics, and payers; map journeys and friction points.

About

CTO with 13+ years of full‑stack development experience in the finance domain, specializing in solution architecture, event‑driven systems, and scalable platforms. I apply this expertise to neurotech by designing reliable sensor data pipelines, patient monitoring systems, clinical data integrations, and research platform architectures. Proficient with Miro for collaborative design and delivery, and with Apache Kafka, Azure Event Hub, and modern collaboration tools to build resilient, observable data flows from device to insight.

Why I Joined

A close friend—a dedicated table tennis player—was diagnosed with Parkinson’s. That moment shifted my focus from pure fintech to building neurotech solutions that matter. At Ping Pong Parkinson Estonia, I reframed my role to establish the technical infrastructure of a neurotech initiative focused on Parkinson’s research and intervention. Our aim is to combine the physical benefits of table tennis with a robust measurement and analytics stack to generate clinical insights and measurable outcomes.

What I Enjoy

• Turning research questions into deployable, event‑driven systems that scale from pilot to production.
• Designing end‑to‑end data flows for multi‑modal sensor inputs, real‑time monitoring, and longitudinal cohorts.
• Enabling clinicians and researchers with platforms for data quality, traceability, and reproducible analysis.
• Working across teams—engineers, data scientists, clinicians, coaches—to deliver outcomes, not just features.
• Using tools like Kafka and Azure Event Hub to ensure low‑latency streaming, durability, and fault tolerance, with Miro to align stakeholders and accelerate delivery.

Personal Touch

I’m driven by building systems that are as human‑centered as they are technically sound. Married with two children, I want my work to inspire them—showing how technology can deliver tangible health impact. I bring a collaborative, delivery‑first mindset and a focus on scalable solutions with clear metrics tied to clinical and functional outcomes. Beyond the code, I stay close to the community that sparked this journey, ensuring the platform we build serves patients, researchers, and families alike.
