Born December 24 th in Teheran / Iran. At the age of 2 he left Iran with his parents and immigrated to Germany. Later at the age of 6 he began studying the piano, his first instrument, which he played for about 4 year period of time. Since 1993 he began with lessons of the Setar, which became his main instrument later. He learned the Setar from his teachers Majid Derakhshani and Hamid Motebassem.

He also collected practical experiences from Ostad M. R. Lotfi, J. Zolfonun and H. Alizadeh. About three years later he began to learn the Drum (Daf) by studying on his own. Here he also collected some practical experiences from Bijan Kamkar, the Andalibi Brothers and Sadegh Taarif. From 1997 he was professionally involved in music and began performing on various festivals like the well-known "Falun Folk Festival" in Sweden and many many others.

Despite the fact that he grew up in a foreign country he has a strong bound to his roots and the traditional music of his home country.
