Date of birth: 11.04.1985

Personal biography/musical backround:

"When I was under 10 years old I listened to Finnish rock/punk-music and so on... I bought my first drum kit when I was 10 years old(1995). I played about 3 years at home playing along with my favourite songs. Then I joined in a band of my friends. We played some Metallica`s covers and so I became interested on Metal music. In that time I played also icehockey. After joining the band of my friend`s, I bought another bass drum for my kit because it was almost necessary for that kind of music. Couple of years later I joined to a few other local bands, which played rock and metal. Once I played in five bands at the same time! Once, when I was in training with one of my bands I got a phone call from Requiem`s ex-bass player and he asked me to join in Requiem. I accepted the offer and later on we had our first training session together. It worked out and here we are...! "
