David Rabeeya was born in Baghdad, Iraq. Living inside a Muslim land, as a Jew, he faced discrimination growing up. Eventually, his family moved to Israel.

He has grown to accept all different cultures and religions over his lifetime, as a Sephardi Jew.

He currently works as a teacher for Middle and High School students.[1]
