Favorite Quote :

I began my musical life when I was 10, by playing the keyboards for about 8 years, then I found that my voice is so powerful and could be used in such a heavy band, and later I started to play guitar. And I believed that there are two Gods in the metal world ....Mr. Ronnie James Dio and Mr. Yngwie J. Malmsteen, I learned a lot from these monsters, and I'm trying to put some of their voice and methods in my singing and playing style.
At the present time I'm studying chemistry, and I'm in my second year.
My favorite pet is my sweet little Cat!

 I started playing on a nylon string guitar when I was 15, till now I'm continuing my study into jazz guitar, I bought my first electric Fender Stratocaster . in 1997, along with a Zoom effect processor, but later I replaced it with Boss Gt-5 effect processor and a Zoom driver attached to it.
I knew Aram from School, in summer 1997 we met and decided to form a band called Cruel Mermaid, we began covering most popular songs but later the thing turned to Nu.Clear.Dawn.
I've grown with Pink Floyd's music, which introduced me into the band Dream Theater, to which I'm a big fan now.

I dreamed since my childhood of being a drummer, when I was 16, I started playing using an old handmade sticks and practicing on my legs, ( but I got some pain on my kneecaps ). I took simple lessons from a personal teacher in the most technical way of drumming, but that wasn't all I want, I needed more technique and rock drumming , like Lars Ulrich, he was my Idol at the time. Later I collected some money, which wasn't enough, so I asked Dad for a help, and he agreed, and I bought my first 4 pieces Lazer drum kit on 27/Dec/1996.
At the first my kit was a little small, later I got Sabian cymbals, which changed my whole playing style, check out the Equipment page to see my Kit.

Favorite Quote :

It all started when I was 19, when I got my first 4 string Yamaha bb2000, although my father is a bass player but he didn't help me in anything, I didn't get any lessons, I learned everything by myself through work and jams with other bands, I started playing rock music with another band, then I introduced to Nu.Clear.Dawn and joined them.
