I was born in 1983, Athens, Greece. Since 2010 I live abroad and in 2015 I moved to Finland.
During my studies at a technical university in North-Western Greece, I joined a course for amateur photographers organized by the local cultural association. This led me to join Platon Rivellis's teaching and Photography Circle, an Athens-based photographic association whose members, share common artistic values.
I am involved with photography since 2006. Between 2008 and 2014 I shot sporadically, because I realized - the hard way it seems - the distance that separated the work of photographers I admired and mine's. Since 2015, I regularly take photos and present my work through portfolio presentations, solo and group exhibitions. In 2019, I published a small book with 40 photographs.
