Only child of acting parents Alex Kat was exposed early to glamour and later took up a career in fashion, working in the most exclusive fashion magazines, but a near death experience coma caused by a violent attack which left him hospitalized with a blood clot in his skull made him question what life was all about. He began taking healing courses in ancient medicine techniques, shamanism and homeopathy. His mission now is to continue the dialogue between traditional healing and the allopathic medicine communities.
