My Story

I was born in the beautiful city of Turin, whose great advantage besides its architectural beauty is that it is just a stone’s throw from the sumptuous mountains of the Alps. And it was there, in Bardonecchia, where I made my first slides on snow and quickly fell in love with the sport.

Thanks to competitions, I soon began to leave Bardonecchia to go racing across Europe. First in the little village next door, then another region of Italy and finally to other states such as France, Austria, Germany, and Spain.

I stopped racing at 20 years old to pursue another goal: to become a ski instructor. I couldn’t wait to pass on my passion for the sport. I also taught for three years as a teacher in Sansicario in Italy, but I needed a new challenge again, so here I am in Courchevel!

Thanks to the experience accumulated in the first amateur and then professional skiing competitions environment, I can provide coaching, advice and technical solutions fundamental to learning the art of alpine skiing.

I have often worked with kids over the years as a teacher, and I love doing it. I enjoy being around them, having fun and seeing their eyes light up enthusiastically when starting skiing for the first time.

As with many of my colleagues, off-piste is the ultimate expression of the sport. The feeling you get in those moments is one of the things I enjoy the most, and I am ready to share it with anyone up for a beautiful outing.
