  • Former Government Chief Data Officer at Ministry of Justice and Digital Affairs
  • Client Engagement and Delivery Lead

Client Engagement and Delivery Lead on Data at Tony Blair Institute for Global Change. I believe the future of government is built on trusted data, ethical AI, and people-first digital infrastructure. As Estonia’s Chief Data Officer, I led national transformation efforts that are reshaping how data and artificial intelligence power public value—locally and globally. From architecting Estonia’s national AI strategies to building cross-government data governance and launching human-centric platforms like Bürokratt, my focus is on making innovation scalable, secure, and inclusive. Estonia has become a model for digital governance, and I’ve had the privilege to help drive that journey - positioning data and AI as strategic enablers of growth, resilience, and transparency. Under my leadership, AI use cases in government have multiplied 45-fold, open data availability has increased over 100x, and data-driven services have become embedded in everyday public life.
