I’m a cognitive scientist, game enthusiast, and gambling researcher. I have a PhD and the title of docent in cognitive science from the University of Helsinki where I used to work as a university lecturer. Currently I work as a senior researcher at the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare on gambling harm prevention.

I’ve published 60 scientific papers (51 peer-reviewed) on topics covering, but not limited to, emotions and decision-making, poker expertise, gambling, psychology of deception, personality, memory, and moral psychology of robotics. I’m interested and deeply involved in statistics, data wrangling, analysis and visualization.
