I'm sorry but I have to quick fail this article. :( Please see main reasons below.

Is it well written?

I understand that the editor(s) native language is not English. However, much of the article is written with a very casual tone - some parts sound like a story and other parts like an essay. There's also some excessive detail about his early years. This is one of the first requirements as outlined here: Wikipedia:Make technical articles understandable. I recommend looking at more good articles (of similar people) to get an idea on tone and language. I give the editor (Yasshu28) credit, because you've done a good job with making the article easy to understand. Unfortunately, it's not the right tone for a good article.

Is it verifiable with no original research?

This is another problem area. There are not enough inline citations and not enough sources, so it's hard to verify the facts. Source number 5 (a website to an interview) has been used 23 times, but this citation needs to be placed more in the text. Also, the references in the list are missing their website titles.
