Biography
He has been in ice skates since he was eight years old and, an ambitious child, has dreamed of taking part in the Olympic Games ever since. He has developed a talent for competitions, without sacrificing his education, which led him to study the Science and Techniques of Applied Cognitive Psychology. This has also enabled him to win 4 medals at the 2013 Winter Universiade in Trentino, taking gold in the 1000 metres and also breaking the record set by Enrico Fabris, who took part in the 2006 Turin Winter Olympics, at the Universiade 2007 at the Oval arena in Turin. He believes that “you can go faster and faster”, which is why cycling is one of his favourite hobbies.
