He was born in Skopje, where he finished secondary vocational education. Member of the DPM (1996). His verses, as well as the overall literature of Roma, provoke a series of questions and dilemmas for being, love, death, for life with their everyday and life with a cosmopolitan facility. These are verses that promote the thought of Roma in Macedonia, but their thought for Macedonia and beyond.
