I was born in Tbilisi, capital of Georgia. The environment I grew up in had a major influence on my views of life. I lived there for 30 years and learned that life means working
hard. In these years I got my education and became a physician. In 1983 I married my wife, Nina. My son Vadim was born in Georgia. In 1991 we moved to Israel. It is a beautiful country,
amazing in its diversity. We lived in Holon, Israel for more than five years. I practiced medicine there too. Since 1996 we live in New Jersey. My daughter Anne Sarah was born in 1998.
It's certainly hard to squeeze an entire life into one page, but I tried my best...
