Born in Jerusalem, Israel, to a family of mixed heritage, with a father of Georgian descent and a mother of German ancestry, this Israeli actor's childhood was marked by frequent moves due to his father's diplomatic career. At the age of 19, he embarked on a three-year journey of mandatory service with the Israeli Navy, a path that would later shape his perspective and inform his artistic endeavors.
After completing his military service, he pursued his passion for acting by enrolling in the Nissan Nativ Acting Studio in Israel, graduating in 2005. He further honed his craft at the renowned Bristol Old Vic Theatre school in Bristol, UK, graduating in 2009.
Following his academic pursuits, he relocated to London, where he garnered critical acclaim for his performance as Joel in the production 'Nineveh', which premiered at the prestigious Riverside Studios. This breakthrough role was soon followed by a recurring appearance in the award-winning mini-series 'The Honourable Woman', directed by the acclaimed Hugo Blick and starring the talented Maggie Gyllenhaal, who received a Golden Globe and Emmy nomination for her outstanding performance.
