He acquired an exasperating number of motorcycles, which he used to ride into the mountains—though he did not always make it back the same way. A self-taught guitarist, he performed in a series of clubs that soon afterwards experienced financial ruin. He later studied Psychology in England, where he spent a considerable amount of time getting soaked while consistently wearing the wrong clothes.

He is passionate about comics, film noir, and Agatha Christie. He plays funk, soul, and jazz, and writes blues lyrics. He writes compulsively for magazines, social media, and notebooks alike.

He works as a teacher in Heraklion, a city he has since come to love. He has been publishing articles since 2005, and three collections of his short stories have been published. The first of these was voted among the Top 10 books by readers in the Public Book Awards. Oblik is his first novel.
