In 1976 BiLi took his first classes in Mime in Palo Alto, California, with Mime instructor and performer Stella Bensadon, former disciple of Marcel Marceau and Etienne Decroux. He took classes during two years on traditional Mime techniques and skit improvisation.

In 1980, BiLi went to the Leonard Pitt School of Mime at Berkeley, California to study the use of masks in Mime.

In 1977 BiLi joined a Mime troupe called Pianomime which was composed of seven Mimes and which performed with live piano music.

Through the years, BiLi has developed and strengthened traditional Mime techniques to conceive and perform skits that became part of his one-man show which he performs mainly in theaters (theater Mime as opposed to street Mime).

Occasionally BiLi uses Balinese and Venetian masks in his performances. The former are unique pieces individually handcrafted by masters mask makers in the island of Bali (Indonesia).

BiLi teaches classes and workshops for adults and children. His teaching is conducted in 5 languages (English, French, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish) which he speaks and writes fluently.
As an extension to the art of Mime, BiLi has developed and facilitates seminars on Non-Verbal Communication.
