1:1 & advisory

He rebuilt his own life. Now he helps you rebuild yours.

Tero is a mentor, teacher, published author, loving father, and inspiring speaker — but his biggest accomplishment has been quieter: finding real personal happiness, and an honest balance between life and work.

Getting there wasn’t easy. Multiple start-ups didn’t work out. Neither did some of his best-laid plans. Years of failures, hard resets, and complicated situations came before the clarity — which is exactly why his advice holds up outside a keynote.

If you’re building a business, a start-up, or simply a better version of your life, Tero helps you see the possibilities you’re missing and solve the problems in front of you — with brutal honesty, a fun perspective, and thinking you can apply the same day.

More than a title

A life built across countries, industries, and ideas.

Born in Finland and now based in Mexico, Tero is a serial entrepreneur and start-up founder, advisor, educator, mentor, author, and game & UX designer — with a track record across a wide range of industries.

His sharpest tools are creativity, improvisation, storytelling, resilience, and fearless decision-making — sharpened by a career spent designing games and experiences, then applied to real business and real life. He helps people see the possibilities they’ve overlooked, and question the rules they never consciously chose.

He’s also created and hosted multiple podcasts and shows — including CafeConAutores, The Unprofessional Show, and Books & Beers — and is a published author of both board games and “Life Is A Sandcastle.” Whether he’s on stage, mentoring a founder, designing an experience, or writing a book, Tero brings brutal honesty, humor, and a deeply human perspective.
