Bio
⛔️ High-quality translations, proofreading and copywriting on tap! Extensive experience in all things iGaming, marketing, entertainment, and Finnish and English language! Fast response time, quick turnaround, and overflowing communication! ⛔️

Are you looking for a punctual Finnish specialist who is also an English aficionado and extremely experienced in the online casino niche? 🎰 I have plenty of experience with all kinds of text, whether it be creative and entertaining content writing or to-the-point easy-to-use instruction manuals. Writing is my number one passion and I also used to blog in both Finnish and English.

BACKGROUND:

I have a bachelor's degree from the highly esteemed University of Helsinki. I majored in Finnish language and minored in both Finnish literature and English. I also studied Finnish to English and English to Finnish translation and consider myself an expert in both languages.

My biggest professional strength is probably my mastery of both Finnish and English. Finnish is a difficult language in and of itself, which means that not even many natives have a true grasp of it. I have done plenty of translations and proofreading in both languages.

PAST PROJECTS:

– Writing numerous casino texts, reviews, and core content for several casino clients over the years, also working for Unibet, Dreamz Casino, Winny Casino, Genesis Global Limited and many affiliates including Nettikasinot.com, Kasinosuomi, Casinoproffa, Slotsia, Casinotop, MrGamble, Kasinokaverit, Slotsaholics, and more. This has also included playing around with keywords and SEO.

– Translating and localizing a major recruiting software platform for a huge company here on Upwork. One of my largest projects on this site to date.

– Storywriting for the mobile game Fading Fairytales. The game was very dialogue-oriented and I wrote about 60.000 English words of dialogue in it. Apple complimented the game's quirky humor, and the game was downloaded nearly 300.000 times during its first week. (I believe creative writing to be the hardest part of any language to master.)

– Writing news articles and all kinds of texts for numerous professional Finnish media outlets. This included movie and theater reviews and much, much more.

I have become known for my punctuality and grammatical acumen. I ask a lot of questions and make sure that my texts are exactly what my clients are looking for. If communication is key, I must be the proverbial locksmith!
