Alongside this passion, Sopho has explored coding and is considering two future paths: becoming a data scientist or returning to her psychology studies.
A true lover of languages and cultures, Sopho has studied Italian and hopes to learn Finnish in the future, driven by her long-standing interest in both countries. Beyond work, she enjoys reading, painting, and baking, as well as spending time outdoors with friends, taking walks, and discovering new places. Yoga and meditation are an essential part of her daily routine, helping her stay balanced and energized.
Reading has always been close to her heart, shaping her perspective from a young age. In recent years, she has been especially drawn to Japanese literature.
