Since a young age, Riz has always been creative. He considered taking Music at university but his Asian parent's biggest dream was for their son to become a Doctor. He decided to please his parents and subsequently went to medical school at Leeds University and spent seven years training to be a doctor. During his time in Leeds, he continued his passion of music in the form of DJ'ing. He would spend his days studying medicine and his nights DJ'ing in clubs and house parties. He then returned back to London and trained another 3 years to become a fully qualified General Practitioner. During this time, he also studied Electronic Music Production at Point Blank Music School. During this time, he was selected to record an album at Peter Gabriel's studio after entering his Adele remix of "Hello". It was at this time, when one of his close friends recommended he take up an acting course. It wasn't long before he realised that this was going to become his life passion. Since 2016 he has immersed himself in training to become a professional actor as well as continuing to work as a Doctor in the emergency Department in one of the most busiest and demanding hospitals in London.
