Professional highlights

Startups. For years I have been a team member of the sTARTUp Day business festival. By contributing to the sTARTUp community, I have helped to create fertile soil for startups in Tartu to grow.

Voluntary work. I have been a member and board member of several voluntary organisations and initiatives, including AIESEC Tartu, the University of Tartu Marketing Club and the University of Tartu Student Council. I also serve as leader of the Global Shapers Community in Tallinn, an international network of young people driving dialogue and change.

Starting a movement and creating an organisation. As a student at the University of Tartu, I was one of the core founders of the OLE ROHKEM lifestyle brand and the Tartu University Student Foundation. Our team aimed to create a developing environment for all university students in Tartu. This allowed us to influence thousands of students to be more active during their studies, bring together a network of student organisations and establish a development programme for all student organisations. I led the foundation for two years. This now helps me understand clients who lead an organisation.

Internships. Being keen to obtain as many varied experiences as possible, I interned at Tartu county court, the Police and Border Guard Board’s South prefecture, and law firm Derling and Jesse & Kalaus Attorneys, where I also worked as a lawyer.

Student of the Year. In 2018, I was presented with the Student of the Year award for my social and community achievements.
