I began studying guitar at the age of 11 and shortly after began to delve into the study of modern guitar. I began studying Jazz at the Rovigo Conservatory under the guidance of Roberto Cecchetto graduating with top marks. Here I had the chance to attend various courses and masterclasses with musicians of the caliber of Eddie Gomez, Lage Lund, John Abercrombie, Jochen Rueckert.

Then I continued my jazz studies at the Adria Conservatory under the guidance of Andrea Massaria, Paolo Ghetti, Alessandro Lanzoni, Michele Francesconi and Michele Corcella, graduating here too with top marks and honours.

My path in jazz music still continues with the guidance of guitarist Jordan Klemons (New York) by attending online masterclasses and seminars with Peter Bernstein, Lage Lund, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Umberto Fiorentino, Roberto Cecchetto, John
Stowell.

I play jazz music with various ensembles, in particular with my quartet where I perform original compositions and arrangements. I am a experienced guitarist, composer and tutor and I can help you achieve your goals by building a solid foundation that will take you, musically, wherever you want.
