Born in Beirut, Lebanon in September 1983. I started playing the guitar at the age of 13. Influenced foremost by Rock and Metal and by all sounds created by the universe.
There is not one guitarist that has not left a tonestamp in me. But yet again those I would proudly name as my influences are: Mattias IA Eklundh, Ron 'Bumblefoot Thal', John Petrucci, Shawn Lane, Jason Becker, Django Reindheart, Buckethead, Chris Oliva, Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, David Guilmore, Andy Timmons and last but not least Van Halen.
I played guitar with The Arcane of which I had been a member since 1999 till 2012. Released 2 albums with them: "Birth From Division" 2004, and "Rivers of Endless Sorrow" 2010.  We had toured a lot locally since our early debut. 
I also record sessions for studios, be it jingles or do guest appearances with various artist.
Played with many pub bands locally and sometimes abroad, met amazing musicians and tend to meet even more.
Was a guest artist and gear demo dude at the local MTV station in the summer of 2010.
Former 3D Artist and sound &amp; music technician at Digipen/AKE I was responsible for creating 3D art assets for games in addition to music &amp; SFX for all the applications and games. 
Currently Partner at Wixel Studios, I work with game programming, 3D character creation and animation, and game music.
I studied Computer Science (Concentrated in Computer Graphics and Animation) at NDU, and hold a Diploma in Advanced Character Animation, from Animation Mentor in California.
I am also working on my solo project/CD that as you may know may take so long to get out, that's why I post tracks, bits and pieces of my work over here.
