I was born, raised, and educated in Rome, Italy, where my family still lives. After completing my studies in Tourism and Languages, I joined the Italian Army and, at the age of 20, became an officer, later serving as an artillery battery commander in the Italian 5th Regiment.

After completing my service, I returned to Rome to pursue career opportunities that would allow me to travel the world. That opportunity came when I was working in a downtown Rome hotel and Princess Cruises recruited me to become a purser on their ships. I ended up in Australia, where I lived for three years before achieving my dream of becoming a Cunard Officer. My career with Cunard spanned over four years, ultimately culminating as Chief Purser. On board, I met my wife, and we sailed together for two years before she became pregnant. It was time to settle down and raise a family, so we chose San Diego.

I restarted my career in the hotel business, first with Four Seasons, then Hilton. I was then recruited by Aegis Living, a luxury senior living company based in Seattle, where I quickly climbed the ranks to VP of Operations and Strategic Board Member.

After seven years at Aegis, I was asked to found a new hotel management company to take over management at the HGI Carlsbad Beach and oversee the development of the brand-new Hilton Carlsbad Oceanfront (now called Cape Rey). My knowledge base continued to expand, and after five years running my own management company, I seized the opportunity to join a new partnership aimed at acquiring and managing hotels and multifamily buildings. Early in this endeavor, I had the opportunity to consult for the $200M development of the Breakers Hotel in Long Beach and the $80M development of the Ocean Center Building. A few months later, I was asked to join as VP of Real Estate and Hospitality. Over the next seven years, I handled every aspect of both developments, including engaging Fairmont to brand and manage the Breakers Long Beach.

Today, I am ready for new adventures and to bring my knowledge, expertise, and leadership abilities to your organization. 

 My driving force is to have meaningful relationships with the people I work and share my life with. My hope is to make a positive difference in someone's life. My passion is to learn at every given opportunity. My love is my family, the reason I get up every day and do what I do. Most importantly, they keep pushing me to achieve bigger and better things with each new challenge.
