I learnt to ski as a child on the meadows surrounding my family's farm. As a young man, I completed the training that enabled me to turn my passion into a profession and become a ski instructor.

I still teach with the same enthusiasm today, drawing on a lifetime spent in the mountains. As well as alpine skiing, I practise ski mountaineering, trekking and via ferrata climbing. Through my work in forestry, I lived and worked among forests and wildlife for many years, learning to know and deeply respect the mountains.

I consider myself a “senior” instructor in the very best sense of the word, with experience and knowledge of the area, as well as close attention to safety. Above all, I still have the same passion for snow and freedom that I had when I first started skiing all those years ago.

Today, I am happy to share my passion for skiing with others and to continue experiencing the mountains where it all began.

The Ski School Adamello Brenta, where I usually teach, is founded on professionalism, experience, and a great passion for the mountains. Every student, whatever their level, can expect careful support and guidance every step of the way. The tradition of ski teaching is combined with knowledge of the local area and the pleasure of enjoying the snow safely and enthusiastically.
