Biography

He started swimming at the age of 6 to alleviate back problems and, after overcoming his initial reluctance, has been part of an incredible story. A tireless mover, he has always loved long distances, and finally took the limelight thanks to his undeniable perseverance and professionalism, combined with his talent at long-distance swimming. At the youth level, he has been appreciated both nationally and globally. At the 2018 Assoluti he managed to dominate in the 400 freestyle, sending a clear signal with the best European and fourth-best world performance of the year. In 2019 he started open-water swimming, and the feedback he received from the World Championships has clearly rewarded his choice.
