The first approach with the drums came at the age of 13 with the teacher Gabriele Boria, in Monza, from that moment on became an obsession to play to the point that at the age of 16 I met Franco Rossi of the Accademia Musica Moderna which I decided to attend and with whom I studied (and continue to study) until I acquired a bachelor of arts in instrument. Thanks to these studies I played for several bands and taught in schools and privately, a first approach to teaching drums came to replace Liano Chiappa, drummer of Sarabanda and for some of Elisa's tours within the Roland course V-Drums Kids. The concerts come with the first bands in the province of Monza such as Ferente, but also with African percussion ensembles for Afro dance courses and charity events. After the transfer from Monza to Clusone (BG) I was part of a band from the Seriana Valley, the AltaQuota, with whom I had a lot of live experience playing in various clubs including the well-known Druso in Ranica (BG) but also at contests and festivals in the Seriana Valley and Bergamo. I then played live for Simone Foti, a singer active in the Italian scene with songs that are the soundtrack of films and festivals such as that of the cinema in Rome. I teach at the Mille e una nota school in Cenate while I remain active on social media with a YouTube channel dedicated to my instrument and available at live events.
