Who I am
I was born and raised in Verona, Italy, and moved to the United States in my mid-thirties, seeking a fresh start and a new career.
My passion for wine began in 2013 when I enrolled in the Wine Program at Boston University. Over the years, I continued my education in the wine world and covered various roles in the wine industry, where I still work. I became a Certified Sommelier with the Court of Master Sommeliers Americas, an Italian Wine Scholar with the Wine Scholar Guild, and a Certified Wine Specialist with the Society of Wine Educators.
After gaining experience in wine retail, I expanded into wine tourism, distribution, and importing. I am an avid seeker of beauty, a lover of the natural world, and an amateur photographer with a keen eye for aesthetics. For me, wine is not just a beverage but a medium through which landscape, history, and traditions converge in liquid form.
I split my time between Verona, Italy, and Boston, United States, with my wife and daughter.
