What keeps me up at night, besides lack of transparency !


  • What is in our water?
  • How did it get there?
  • What’s being done about it?



  • Wetland Protection !
  • Responsible Planning!
  • Responsible Permitting!



  • Digital Infrastructure!
  • AI Traffic Solutions!
  • Cyber Safety!


Born in Finland, a place where respect for the environment,

community, and technology is ingrained in every aspect of society,

I've carried these values with me to Manatee County.

My career in IT and cybersecurity wasn't just about

advancing technology but also about ensuring it

served the greater good. When I look at Manatee

County, with its unique beauty and potential, I see

challenges—traffic congestion, water quality issues,

and threats to our cybersecurity—that I know could be

addressed with the right combination of innovation,

community involvement, and forward-thinking

leadership.


The situation at Piney Point, the groundwater

contamination in Tallavast, and the increasing

vulnerabilities in our utility departments' cybersecurity

highlights a clear need for change. These aren’t just

abstract issues to me; they are urgent calls to action. I

see the potential for smart technology to mitigate our

traffic issues, inspired by success stories like

Singapore's.

I know that updating our water quality standards

and improving our digital infrastructure could protect

our community and environment for the long term.


My decision to run for Manatee County Commission

District 7 At-large is driven by a desire to see our

community thrive through sustainable growth,

technological advancement, and inclusivity. It isn’t

about a career in politics; it is about applying my

background and values to serve the community I've

come to love.


I'm running to bring a fresh perspective to the

commission, one that prioritizes long-term

environmental health, leverages technology for public

good, and ensures our community's voice is heard

loud and clear in every decision we make. Join me in

envisioning a future for Manatee County where we not

only address our current challenges but also lay the

groundwork for a thriving, sustainable, and connected

community.

It's time for a new leadership that brings Democrats, Republicans, and Independents together to end the chaos in Manatee County Government and deliver real results for all

Manatee County Residents !
