Nico “Junnu” Giansanti
🜃 Who am I?
I am a {age}-year-old technology expert, business architect and social influencer, originally from Lahti, Finland and now based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. I live at the interface where technology, society and spiritual reality meet. I work freely under the name LEVELI together with Milad “Slim Mill” Dehghani, without borders or hierarchy. I also develop the internationally recognized TeknoParrot project.
🏛 Public life and politics
Before leaving Finland, I was active in public life. I served as a Deputy City Councilor of Helsinki and as Vice Chairman of a parliamentary party. Those years taught me how power, community and responsibility truly work, lessons I carry into everything I build today.
🛏 LEVELI: more than media
LEVELI MEDIA is a free voice. No ties, no censorship. We founded it during 2020, a time when no one else dared to speak. We created a place where truth, intuition and humor collide.
Our formats reach from podcasts to combat sports, conspiracies, meme culture and the whispers of the streets.
LEVELI Fight Night
LEVELI Fight Night is Finland's answer to boredom. We have organized five events featuring everything from professional boxing title fights to the trials by fire of first-timers. Every night is energy that cannot be staged; it is a ritual in which real stories are revealed in the ring.
This world is not only something I produce; it is something I live. I am a Muay Thai fighter myself, and I fought in LEVELI Fight Night III. I have coached at King of the Ring, the gym founded by Jomhod Kiatadisak, and I have helped in the fight camps of well-known fighters such as Alexander “Stagala” Krigsman. I am also experienced in Taekwondo, Boxing, Wrestling, Kickboxing, MMA and BJJ. I began martial arts at the age of six or seven and have practiced them all my life.
Fight Night is not merely a show. It is an encounter with reality.
TeknoParrot
TeknoParrot is a digital time machine. It returns lost arcade worlds to the present day. It is open, breathing, constantly growing, and the project of my heart.
Charity
Giving is part of my life, but I have learned to keep it quiet. The teachings remind us that true charity seeks no witness, so I no longer speak of where my help goes. It is enough that it reaches those who need it.
☩ Spiritual journey
I am Catholic and a member of the Order of the Knights Hospitaller. Symbols, numbers and visions; they are not coincidences. I live in a world where the invisible shapes the visible. This life is both a battle and a blessing. I have a daughter named Viola, and I am married to Erika.
⚭ Marriage
On 8 August 2025 I married Erika Giansanti at the Chiesa di Santo Stefano degli Abissini in Vatican City.

🏛 Family and Roman roots
The Roman family memory preserves a world shaped by Catholic faith, ancient Roman heritage, noble references, chivalric service and master craftsmanship. The Giansanti of Rome have long been remembered as goldsmiths and jewellers close to the life of the Church, a tradition the Roman branch still carries on today through its jewelry shops in Rome.
According to the elders, the name is remembered as possibly descending from Giovanni Santi, the father of Raphael, through the gradual evolution Giovanni Santi → Gian Santi → Giansanti. The Giansanti name appears in Italian noble records, in Catholic chivalric records connected with the Order of Malta, and in the history of Roman goldsmiths and jewellers. Historical records point to a craft tradition passed carefully from one generation to the next.
The Roman memory of the family includes service to the papacy. According to the Italian interview, John Paul I had ordered a pectoral shield that was never delivered, because of his sudden death. For Paul VI the family crafted two embossed golden olive branches: one carried to the Holy Land and kept in the Chapel of the Nativity in Nazareth as a sign of peace, the other entrusted to Uganda. The family tradition is also connected with the restoration and care of the treasure of the Madonna of Pompeii.
In the 1980s the Pope and the Jesuit General finally made peace, with Egidio Giansanti and Roberto Giansanti present.

This photograph, preserved by the Giansanti family in Rome, places the family not only in the world of Roman craftsmanship and jewellery, but also within the ceremonial and Catholic life of Rome. It shows Egidio Giansanti taking part directly in a solemn Church occasion, his children present, at a moment the family remembers as bound to peace between the Pope and the Jesuits.
Roberto Giansanti is remembered as an expert in the valuation of jewellery. The family tradition recounts thousands of valuations, among them an anonymous brooch that he identified as an old Tiffany & Co. piece set with natural alexandrite, after discovering that its signature had been deliberately removed.
War and service marked both sides of my family. On the Roman side, Antonio Giansanti is preserved in the family album as an older and decorated Italian military figure, connected by the surviving photographs to artillery, anti-aircraft guns, field Mass and the Italian presence in Spain. On the Finnish side, the memory of service is also present: men of the family belonged to the generation that defended the homeland in the wars that shaped Finland's survival, while my grandmother Viola served as a Lotta.

These memories are not carried as hatred toward any people, but as inheritance. They belong to the heavy history of Europe: Rome and Finland, Catholic memory and northern endurance, the altar and the battlefield, craftsmanship and sacrifice, silence and survival, exile and return.
My grandfather carried this Roman Catholic identity to Finland after the war. Although language, migration and distance separated the later generations from Rome, the spiritual and ancestral bond remained alive across the years.
For me this is a return, a family remembering its Roman roots after decades of displacement. Faith, craftsmanship, memory and the longing to be reunited with Rome run like a golden thread through the generations.
