Born in Forlì on 16 July 1973, I attained a High School Diploma in Accountancy at the ITC Matteucci of Forlì and subsequently I graduated in Economics at the University of Bologna.

In 1997, together with some other new graduates and university professors, I became a founder member of Infomanager srl, a university spin-off that deals with financial economic analysis. Over the years, together with the Infomanager team, I worked with study centers such as Nomisma, Prometeia, Ambrosetti, Crif, Confindustria, CSO and local banks.
Still with Infomanager, I carried out consultancy services to companies such as Ducati Motor, Bonfiglioli, Olitalia, Apofruit, Sfir and Safilo.
