Background

About Anni Heilala

I have always been passionate about seeking solutions to problems. My near future goal is to improve my skills as a project manager and dive more into the world of different projects. Currently, I am working as a project manager and software specialist. As a project manager I have already had many interesting projects to manage and I really like this new role of mine. My main title is software specialist because the projects almost always relate someway to projects in the field of infrastructure and land use planning. I am still very interested in developing software to be effortless but still valuable and comprehensive. Although, I am currently working in software field I have initially studied three years planning geography. I graduated in 2018 as B.Sc. from University of Helsinki. There the most instructive and interesting studies were especially GIS-courses and my minor in Computer Science. In the end of 2020 I graduated as M.Sc.(Tech) from Spatial Planning and Transportation Engineering -master program from Aalto University. In fact, my educational background is helping me a lot to understand the clients, mostly planners, and their questions. I am mixing knowledge from built environment, GIS and computer science in software industry. In addition, customer experience is very important for me and I am always interested to improve processes and my skills in that theme. I am interested in the future of our cities and I want to affect to the current and constantly increasing digitalization in the processes of built environment.
