Minimalistic Speaker Rider
Since December 2019, I am on a traveling break as per requested by my teenage kids. I'm happy to share my experiences in online conferences and deliver online workshops.

I have a full-time job at Vaisala as a principal test engineer and I teach limited amount of sessions on the side for my side company maaretp.

I invoice 2500 euros for a full day training, and 1500 euros (+ VAT) for a conference (keynote) session. I often waive my fees on request as long as this is also something all other speakers are doing. I don't pay to speak - that is - if there is travel involved, I always expect those paid.

I don't participate in calls for proposals and consider invitation necessary. In encourage conference organizers to consider all my talks on this site as proposals you can consider, and I would be happy to deliver if I can make the schedule work.

My Sessions
I teach courses (0.5 days -> 3 days), also split into 2 hour sessions which is works great for remote learning. My workshops are single-purpose sessions that stand independent and are usually 1.5 - 2 hours. My talks are 30 - 60 minutes. My free public sessions are posted under Exploratory Testing Academy tito.
