He was born in Messinia and studied at the National Theater Drama School. He started his career in touring troupes during the German Occupation. He was one of the founding members of the National Theatre of Northern Greece (NTNG), from whose management he was characterized as one of the brightest theatrical personalities of Thessaloniki. He then collaborated with the Greek Folk Theater of Manos Katrakis and other theaters in Athens, while in 1965 he returned to NTNG where he remained until 1984 when he retired. In honor of the actor, an album was published about his work and life, while an honorary evening was organized at the Garden Theater, for his contribution to the formation of the historical face of NTNG.
