Philosophy:

"In canoeing you train alongside others every day, it is a team sport. You share emotions and efforts. It is difficult to put them both together, but it is wonderful once you can." (ilfaroonline.it, 01 Oct 2019)

PARTNERSHIP
In 2019 he teamed up with Samuele Burgo to compete in the men's K2 1000m. "We competed against each other in the K1 during the national team trials. After we talked with our coaches, we decided to form this two-member team. We had never paddled together, but we are much alike in terms of how we handle racing. However, I tend to use more force while paddling while he is more focused on the stroke rate. I need his rate and he needs my strength. We complement each other." (ilfaroonline.it, 01 Oct 2019)
