Lauri Ahonen’s Summary

I'm a co-founder and partner in a creative agency and I'm best known for my eccentric personality, never ending laughter and world class photoshop skills. I've been featured in Advanced Photoshop magazine and design blogs around the world. In 2008 I received an honorary merit in the Young Lions Finland ad competition and a year earlier I placed 3rd in the Crestock Photoshop Competition.

In addition to my design skills I've got extensive experience from the event production and experience business. Along my hands-on attitude towards life I've also tried to connect with my academic side. I'm majoring in Marketing at the Helsinki School of Economics with minors in Business & Technology (B.Sc) and Content & Media (M.Sc).
