"I was born in Crema in 1995 and grew up in a countryside village, Salvirola, in the province of Cremona. My journey into photography began during adolescence while studying chemistry at the ITIS in Crema.
In the years after graduation, while working as a chemical technician, photography gradually took up more space in my life until it became my main profession in early 2023. In 2022, I felt the need to delve into aspects related to reportage photography. I enrolled in the basic course taught by Lucia Perrotta at the 'WSP Photography' school in Rome, and later continued my journey with the WSP Masterclass led by Fausto Podavini, Giovanni Cocco, and Rosy Santella.
Currently, my working base is Studio 4/3 in Crema (CR). My goal is to photograph social and environmental circumstances in rural, isolated, and extreme contexts to satisfy my curiosity firsthand."
