Energetic and passionate young Yacht Captain, with a solid foundation in both sailing and motor yachts up to 84 meters. I’m a proud member of the Italian Yacht Masters Association, with hands-on experience in both deck and engine room operations, and a deep understanding of yacht management systems and workflows. I’ve collaborated with top-level management companies such as Burgess, Edmiston, Fraser, Reardon, and Ocean Independence, adapting to diverse operational environments while developing strong skills with platforms like IDEA, Triton, ManageMyVessel, EOL, and Ocean. My journey started early, inspired by my father’s passion for the sea. To support my education at the nautical school in Trieste, my family moved from inland and lived aboard a sailing yacht. During those years, I competed in dinghy and offshore regattas and worked every summer as a deckhand and skipper. After graduation, I began my professional career as a Deck Cadet on container ships, before entering the yachting industry, where I progressed to Captain-Engineer roles. Driven by a deep love for the sea, I’m also a certified Dive Master, passionate about sports, drone flying, and video editing – always bringing energy, adaptability, and a hands-on approach to every challenge.
