I was born in London and grew up in a Jewish but not religious home.
My family was part of the small Jewish Iraqi community In London.
as I started my teen years I went to a Jewish Zionist youth group.
When I came to Israel for the first time I knew this is where I want to build my home and start my family.
Today I live in Mevasset Tzion, the outskirts of Jerusalem, with my beautiful wife. we have three amazing children and one gorgeous granddaughter.
This was my dream, so far so good.
