I'm a ski instructor based in Cervinia. I teach private lessons, plan full ski days and longer stays, and take on selected projects connected to skiing.
Profile
Skiing has been part of my life for as long as I can remember.
I started with ski racing and became a ski instructor in 2010. Since then, I have spent more than 10,000 hours teaching on snow, working with guests, teams and skiers of different levels.
Today I work in Cervinia with Scuola di Sci del Breuil as a ski instructor and, since 2022, as its Director. When I teach, I combine technique, especially carving, with what I know about the mountain, so that the day is well organised, safe and enjoyable.
For eight years I coached teams, which taught me to focus on progression, confidence and performance. Cervinia is my home base, but I am open to selected alpine projects, tailored ski days, brand collaborations and experiences across the mountain world.
Outside the winter season, I travel, surf and work as a surf instructor. Movement, places, people and new ideas are a big part of how I see sport and life.

FAQ
I'm based in Cervinia. It's my home base and the place I know best: the slopes, how the weather changes through the season and the connection with Zermatt.
Yes, for selected ski days, projects, collaborations and alpine experiences. Cervinia is my base, but I'm open to moving across the Alps when the project, timing and people make sense.
Yes. You write to me, I confirm availability and send you a quote, and the booking is made through the school. You ski with me.
Private Ski Coaching, the Curated Ski Day, the Tailored Alpine Week (three days or more) and Projects & Collaborations with brands, hotels, events and mountain-related teams.
Individual skiers, couples, families and small private groups. For projects and collaborations, brands, hotels and event organisers.
Yes, I teach children from age 4. Tell me their ages and levels when you write, so I can plan the day around them.
I recommend groups of a similar level. When levels are very different, I suggest separate sessions, so everyone skis at the right pace.
I can help you plan the day or the week: timing, where to eat and how to move around the mountain. Transfers, taxis, helicopter flights and restaurant bookings depend on availability and are arranged through the providers themselves.
