జీవిత చరిత్ర
During school, Ebaa participated in a theatrical production and felt the feeling of freedom when acting. He received an excellent feedback from his director for his performance. Due to his passion for that feeling and his daily watching of movies, he told his parents that he feels he can and wants a Hollywood successful acting career. However, that sounded impossible for his parents financially for the need of relocation.
This made Ebaa be reasonable and put it aside for a while and think of playing Soccer. As he led his school team for 5 consecutive years, he was known for his leadership, teamwork, speed, and high ability to skillfully score in every match. It made him think for a while to professionally seek playing for Manchester United or Real Madrid. However, at the age of 17, Ebaa had a shoulder injury. The doctor told him it will take too long to heal, where he kept struggling with it for over 2 years. His childhood dream of pursuing an acting career was reignited with that incident. He maintained patience by reading about acting, studying music, playing beat instruments and the guitar. He was still watching movies on daily basis and reached around 20,000 hours of watching at that age, where he says he used to do that to enjoy, learn, and practice. He was known for his sense of humor and logical persistence as he used to imitate known world-famous people in front of his classmates and imitate his teachers as well. Many encouraged him to act. He decided to commit to his childhood dream and plan to make it happen.
Still seeing a financial obstacle, Ebaa decided to study Engineering and work for couple of years to afford moving to Los Angeles because an engineering job will be able to pay him back well fast and assure him a visa. While taking a loan and maintaining high GPA in engineering, he attended as well his university's drama club. The director of the theater was surprised by Ebaa's performance and confidence on stage and gave him the lead in his play. When Ebaa told him that he is serious about his dream, his director highly encouraged him to do it. Ebaa attended the university's martial arts club as well and led his team for 3 years by winning golden medals of several championships in Boxing, Kickboxing, and Thaiboxing, where one of it was the Universities World Class League. He was known for not losing any match throughout all of his participations.
After his graduation in 2014, he worked in construction for two years. In 2016, it was the time, he got his student visa and moved to Los Angeles knowing no one but believing in his dream. Ebaa attended UCLA Extension, learned Entertainment studies with focus on acting and Project management and acted in several student films of well-known film schools in town such as AFI, UCLA, USC, and Chapman. A pure grind from a small village in Lebanon all the way to Hollywood, Ebaa finally got his permanent residency and started acting professionally as a full time job the way he used to dream of as a kid. He resides in Los Angeles and is booking roles of major production projects in Hollywood. He has mastered speaking English fluently. He does many accents and enjoys learning new accents and cultures as well, because he believes that learning cultures and communication is a key for a United World.
