I am your coach in endurance sports. I coach xc-skiers, runners, triathletes, and strength and conditioning clients of all ages around the world. 

​

I was born and raised in North Finland, where I used to ski during the long, dark winters and run track during the short mid-night sun summers. I left Finland in 1998, heartbroken, injured, having to quit racing in XCskiing and headed to the mecca of skiing, Norway. 

I've been a student of sports all my life, and being part of sports has literally saved my life when I experienced the biggest challenges in my life. 

​

I am a mom who runs, skis and tris. I don't identify myself as a runner, skier or triathlete because when life takes away one of my greatest sources of fulfilment, I can be lost. Success is never linear and injuries happen. I've learned my greatest lessons through the mess of injuries. 

​

Since 1998, I've been an expatriate, living in 6 different countries on 4 continents. I've been blessed with a loving husband and 3 wildly amazing children. I speak a few languages and strive to be a good person to others and to the environment.  

​

I value honesty, courage, health and openness. With me as your coach, you will get a good listener who geeks out about your training, and educates and motivates you to elevate your fitness so that you can achieve your wildest dreams!
