WHO I AM
Born in Rome, I left the city in 1994 to live in Calascio, a small village within the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park on the southern slope of Gran Sasso.
The mountains have played and continue to play a fundamental role in my life since I was a boy, when, in both winter and summer, I would leave by train from Rome to explore nearby Abruzzo. This led me to be an Alpine first, then a refuge manager, later working on the trails of the Gran Sasso until I became a Medium Mountain Guide in 2005.
The evolution of my mountain going has gone from a simple walker to a careful observer of nature. I am a great lover of skiing in all its aspects: cross-country skier, hiker and ski mountaineer.
Today I have made my passion a profession, with the intention of passing on my love of nature and the mountains to others. I consider myself an excellent connoisseur of the Abruzzi and Alpine mountains, with experience ranging from Val d’Aosta to South Tyrol, where I often organize treks.
