As a teenager, I was fascinated by the sculpted physiques of gym-goers, so at 14 years old, I started training.

After a couple of years in the gym, I got into Bodybuilding, where I learned discipline, patience, and the importance of nutrition. But over time, I felt the need for a team environment, something Bodybuilding couldn’t provide—so I turned to American Football.

During the off-season, our team was required to practice High-Intensity Functional Training, which led me to my first encounter with CrossFit.

That’s when, in 2015, I discovered CrossFit Bicocca, run by Roby and Gio. I quickly became hooked—every session was exciting, and I couldn’t wait for the next one!

At that point, I knew it was time for a change. CrossFit challenged me, transformed my physique, and left me with an incredible post-workout feeling. The more I trained, the stronger I became, and my competitive spirit started to emerge. That’s when I asked Giorgia Donato if I could join the athlete programming.

A whole new world opened up—fascinating, intense, and full of challenges.

To reach the level of my teammates, I had to learn quickly and master every movement. Fueled by that inner fire, I started taking multiple courses in:
Weightlifting, Gymnastics, CrossFit Trainer LV1 Certification.
