He trained at various acting schools in Switzerland and continues to study with the Ivana Chubbuck Studio in Los Angeles. Thomas has worked with directors such as Timur Orge, Uwe Schwarzwalder, and Brian Pinkus. He is best known for his performances in the award-winning thriller "The Safe" (2023), "Senses" (2023), and various short films including "Das Opfer des Königs" and "Tote Hoffnung".
