Born in Milan (Italy), he is graduated as actor in 1994 at "Accademia Progetto Anabasi" with Kuniaki Ida. He has continued the studies for a following year of improvement showing a study on "Krapp's Last Tape" by Samuel Beckett. In 1995 he founded a group, "Hoopoe - Permanent Laboratory of Theatrical Research" coordinated and directed by Mamadou Dioume, with which he has collaborated up to the 1998. He started to work in theater since 1997 with Marco Baliani with the show "Youth Without God" by Odon Von Horvath. In 1998 met Renato Carpentieri on the occasion of a work on Tito Lucrezio Caro's "De Rerum Natura". It begins a collaboration with LiberaScenaEnsemble Company that brings him to the creation of critical versions of classical, "Oedipus In The Forest" from Sofocle (2000), "Medea" by Christa Wolf (2001) and to attend different editions of the "Museum" project bringing on stage non theatrical texts, "The Teacher And Margherita" by Michail Bulgakov (2000), "The Analogous Mountain" by René Daumal (2000), "Dedalus" by James Joyce (2002); in 2002 it is also beside Carpentieri and Amedeo Messina as author of the piéce "La Sala Dei Corollarii, Homage To Franco Fortini." Always directed by Carpentieri it frequents the first edition of "Officina DeiMutamenti", laboratory of specialization on the contemporary dramaturgy that, in 2002, saw him interpreter of three Harold Pinter's plays: "The Hothouse", "The glass of the stirrup", "The language of the mountain". He continues the research and experimentation on authors and contemporary playwrights with Pierpaolo Sepe bringing in scene of Rainer Werner Fassbinder "For A Piece Of Bread" (2002) and "The American Soldier" (2003), of Alberto Bassetti "Entrate!" (2003) and of Christophe Pellet "Le Garçon Giraffe" (2004). Always with Sepe, he took part to productions also facing authors and works not wrote for the theater, as of Hans Magnus Enzensberger "The End Of The Titanic" (2003), of Giovanni Tesori "In your blood" (2004) and of Pier Paolo Pasolini "The Divine Mimesis" (2005). Regarding film productions he interpreted two main roles in "Tomorrow" (1997) directed by Giulio Ciarambino with which it gets a best actor award at the Festival International du Film d'Amour, and "Mario the horse" (2000) directed by Sergio Pappalettera. At the 40 edition of the Pesaro Festival of New Cinema he has screened, with Giovanni Paolucci, "Cascando On The Razor's Edge" (2004), short film inspired by Samuel Beckett's "Cascando" poem.
