About me
With over 24 years of experience in the creative industry, I bring together graphic and web design, branding, visual content creation, music editing, and a strong understanding of entertainment and performance. I have worked with a wide range of artists, brands, and international companies, always focusing on turning ideas into professional, engaging, and memorable results.
My creative journey includes more than 24 years of collaboration with Divet Show by Marko Vainio, creating music edits, screen visuals, and other visual material for live performances. I have also worked with artists and entertainers including Janne Kataja, Eija Kantola, and Lauri Ketonen, as well as international companies such as Tallink Silja, Viking Line, and Silverspoon Global.
Alongside my creative career, I have over nine years of experience in retail management, working in demanding international environments. I have held management positions at LEGO, including Store Manager of the LEGO Flagship Store in Amsterdam, as well as Hollister/Abercrombie & Fitch in Utrecht, where I progressed from Manager in Training to Assistant Manager and Store Manager.
My professional experience combines creativity, leadership, business, and technical expertise. My skills include graphic and web design, branding, visual content creation, music and audio editing, marketing, social media, HR management, recruitment, talent development, customer service, visual merchandising, KPI analysis, problem-solving, team leadership, and business operations.
Having managed large teams and worked with diverse international brands and cultures, I understand both the creative and business sides of a project. I combine attention to detail with strategic thinking and a practical, results-driven approach.
Whether creating a brand identity, website, advertising campaign, show visuals, music edit, or digital content, my goal is always the same: to transform ideas into work that looks professional, communicates clearly, connects with its audience, and stands out.

"I saw the website Daniel created for Divet Show and immediately thought it was one of the best I’ve seen from a Finnish entertainment professional. I got in touch, and we quickly found a shared vision for the visual identity of my own site as well. As someone with a hectic schedule, I truly appreciated how Daniel took the initiative to research my background and personality—then used that insight to create a striking website tailored to my wishes.
Our collaboration continued in an inspiring way when Daniel went on to design the labels for my product line: Kataja's sauce, marinade, and mulled wine spice. They now fit perfectly into my overall brand. He has an excellent eye for cohesive design and ensures that both visual style and content are aligned and accurate.
I’ve also been especially pleased with his ability to deliver high-quality marketing materials on short notice. I warmly recommend Daniel’s services to anyone who values quality, creativity, and reliable collaboration."
