Biography
It did not seem possible that his destiny would involve the possibility of becoming a prominent winter sports athlete. He took pleasure in proving everyone wrong. He started late, at the age of 14, with cross-country skiing and, two years later, thanks to Romed Moroder, he joined a jumping team, thus becoming a Nordic combined competitor. In 2011, he secured, in the Team Sprint of the World Cup held in Seefeld, the first Italian podium in the history of the speciality, in a tie with Pittin. A master of art, he relaxes with music and with his computer. In his free time, he practices mountain running.
