TAAVI PEELO was born in Estonia in 1993 and moved to the United Kingdom in 2014. At the age of 10, he joined the drama group Papa Kreutzwaldi õueteater and started performing on a regular basis.

After moving to the United Kingdom he joined IPM Acting Academy to pursue his long-term goal to switch over to screen acting.

Most notably half-improvisational performance "Glemm Kaputt" which was selected into the final competition of "Kooliteater 2009" by winning the county qualification stage. "Glemm Kaputt" was covered by the national media. According to Taavi he was always more interested in screen acting which led him to join IPM Acting Academy which is based in England, UK.

His very first screen-acting role came shortly after joining IPM when he was chosen to plays as "Paul" in a medieval film "Eight/VIII" which was premiered in Cannes Film Festival, 2014. This led him into more roles in coming years including "Emmerdale", "The Syndicate", "Book of Monsters", "Victoria" and many more. In 2016 Taavi produced and directed his very first movie "Unrequited Love" which is about a young man who needs to decide between a love and friendship.
