Biography
He is back to experience the Olympic dream after eight years. In Rio 2016 he was the first Italian to qualify for the Games and then to reach the final in C-1 1000. He will arrive in Paris 2024, by contrast, paired with Gabriele Casadei. Over the years he has grown competitively at both Italian and international level, trained by Olympic champion Beniamino Bonomi and Renato Caldarone. The adventure in the new Olympic specialty of C-2 500 began in 2022, and the following year saw an immediate success with gold at the European Games in Krakow. In the athlete from Piedmont’s trophy cabinet, are medals and podium finishes at world and European level, especially in C-1, a category in which he established himself from a young age. Enrolled in the faculty of Political Sciences, he will look to write another page in Italian canoeing history at the French Games.
