His career as an actor began quite by accident when he played piano in a performance of Katia Dandoulaki, which prompted him to enter into acting. He has studied the piano since he was 5 years old and has graduated as a soloist and his career was going to be as a pianist until Katia Dandoulaki met him and asked him to portray a soldier alongside fellow actors Giorgos Karamihos and Panagiotis Petrakis in a play called "The Trojan Women" written by Euripides.
