Born and raised in Nataf, a small village in the Judean mountains, I started taking piano lessons when I was 9 years old with my uncle who gifted me a harmonica. I was intrigued by the small and unique instrument which quickly became my main focus in life. In August 2014, I moved to NYC after receiving a full scholarship to study at The New School for Jazz. Shortly after moving to NY I formed my quartet with whom I performed at prestigious venues and festivals such as: Jazz at Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, Bric JazzFest, Le Duc des Lombards, Festival Da Jazz St. Moritz and more.
