My research areas consist of teachers’ and pre-service teachers’ professional development from the point of view of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK). Currently, my specific research interests focus on the use of generative artificial intelligence in teaching and supporting learning through diverse digital methods. At the moment, I work as a researcher in FINSCI project (funded by the Academy of Finland), where our interest is to discover parents’ science capital and children’s science literacy. I am responsible teacher of Early childhood education minor. I work as an educator in School of Applied Educational Sciences and Teacher Education, especially on themes of digital learning and primary education.

I work as a University Lecturer in Social Work. My research has focused on violence as a phenomenon, particularly domestic violence against women, as well as on encounters within the service system during challenging and distressing life events. In my doctoral dissertation, completed in 2022, I examined the structures, practices, and agency related to addressing domestic violence against women. After the dissertation, I worked as a postdoctoral researcher in a project that explored the traumatic experiences and service use of women with criminal backgrounds. Currently, my research focuses on technology-facilitated violence and issues of economic abuse.

I am an adult educator and a researcher in the School of Educational Sciences and Psychology, with a focus on adult learning, creativity, and well-being. In my research, I explore individual and group learning and creativity in various workplace contexts. Currently, my work focuses on the role of workplace pedagogy in supporting innovation in the technology sector, as well as ethical competence and how it develops in police education and police work. I also lead the Continuous Learning in the Working life (JATKOT) research group, which investigates continuous learning and adult competence in Finnish private and public sector organizations.
I follow with interest the societal discourse on continuous learning and adult competence. Through national and international networks, I aim to share research-based insights on my themes in an accessible manner for the benefit of organizations and society.
