He performed in Italy as well as in England, France, Spain and Germany.

His first record as a leader RacconC di una NoEe (Tales of a Night) has been listed among the eighty most significant records of 2016.

The CD version of the record released in 2016 was remarkably successful, which led to the renowned record label Abeat Records releasing a limited edition vinyl in 2023.

Over the years, he won first prize at numerous international competitions and was awarded a plaque of merit by the Circolo del Jazz di Verona (Verona jazz club) during the commemora@on of the prematurely deceased drummer Luciano Zorzella.

In 2021 he was selected to join the National Jazz Young Talents Orchestra conducted by Paolo Damiani, an opportunity which allowed him to perform at the most important na@onal and international festivals. In 2022 the Filarmonia Veneta orchestra invited him to take part in two concerts conducted by cellist Giovanni Sollima.

He is one of the youngest Italian musicians whose biography was included in Dizionario del Italian Jazz (Dictionary of Italian Jazz) by Flavio Caprera, published by the Italian publishing house Feltrinelli.
