In 2019 he also set the student indoor record (47.74). In 2020 he showed a marked improvement in his outdoor personal best (46.30), and in the 2021 indoor season he surpassed the Italian under-20 indoor record (47.11). From Balduina, Rome, he trains at the Acqua Acetosa facility. He graduated from high school with sciences and is studying medicine at Sapienza University. He loves music (he plays the piano), dabbles in cooking and is passionate about fantasy and history.
