Artistic studies began in Catanzaro, but were completed in Rome. In 1982 he graduated in architecture from La Sapienza University of Rome. In 1980, the art center “La Bitta” hosted his first solo show. After two years spent in Verona, in 1985 he settled in Giulianova, in Abruzzo. In 2001, the “Fondazione Italiana Stauròs Onlus” invited him to exhibit at the Staurós Museum of Sacred Contemporary Art in San Gabriele. The work “Father, into Your hands I entrust my spirit” is today a permanent piece in the museum's collection. The following year, in 2002, he created the painting for the poster of the “World Book and Copyright Day,” sponsored by UNESCO. The State Monopolies commissioned him in 2003 to paint the image to be placed on the European Lottery ticket, and in 2004 he was commissioned to create the painting that would be placed on the Italian Lottery ticket. In 2005 the Ministry of Communications promoted a Rome-based exhibition of his work narrating the evolution of the Italian postal service in 100 years of history.

The following year, in 2008, in Rome, the Boncompagni-Ludovisi Museum of the National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art hosted “Odysseus, scenes of a journey,” a show dedicated to him. In 2015, in Rome, at the National Gallery of Modern Art (GNAM), he took part in the group show Corporate Art, concerning the close relationship between industrial commissioning and art. In 2017, at the Teramo Sports Palace, under the patronage of UNESCO and MIUR, the exhibition “Baadaye, Pinocchio of Africa” took place, a reinterpretation of the Pinocchio fable in a modern key, tied to the drama of immigration. In 2019, the Municipality of Ascoli Piceno commissioned him to create the Palio della Quintana for the historic August joust. Also in 2019, he exhibited in two solo shows, at the Palazzo del Pegaso of the Tuscany Region in Florence and later at the Museum of the Peoples of Abruzzo in Pescara.
