My frst contact with the stage was in 2008 within an
international music festival !ince then I have
"artici"ated in various com"etition wich often
#rought me and awards At one "oint I felt that the
stage can "rovide me more then I$ve ever dreamed
of %hen I was a &id , I wanted to #ecame an actor
'ven if that was one of my dreams , this is not the
main reason i choosed to came on acting class (he
real reason it$s #ecause i$ve wanted to #ecame a
"ro)essional singer , a singer who learned to give his
all on a stage , to feel it , to em#race it , a singer who
gives al his sweater on stage for the fans *owadays i
see all the things di)erent (his is not all I$ve learned
from the acting class It$s more then I$ve ever
imagined that it will #e Acting it$s &nowledge,
"assion , madness , love , #lood , hate , "ain , +oy and
other feelings in one soul ,ere is the "lace where
you re#orn li&e a "hoenix from the ashes It$s a
s"iritual re#orn
