Caitlin Killka, 37 - FINNISH HERITAGE
Published: 05/01/19
Scandinavian background: My paternal grandfather was Finnish. This was part of my inspiration to spend my junior year of high school in Oulu, Finland... living in a Finnish family, attending a Finnish high school, and speaking the Finnish language.
What brought you to Columbus? And what do you do? After finishing my undergrad business degree, I moved to Columbus to work in the energy industry as an analyst. I'm currently a senior business analyst at Husky Energy, a Canadian-based integrated oil and gas company.
What do you like most about Scandinavian culture and traditions? I love the Finnish sense of humor -- for a great example in English, check out Ismo the comedian!
Sharing is caring - tell us your favorite Scandinavian musician/author/movie/recipe/travel destination: Whenever I start to miss Finnish food, one of my favorite things to bake are karjalanpiirakat or Karelian pies. It takes some time to prepare them, but for me, it's the ultimate comfort food!
