He then worked as graphic designer before moving to Milan where he graduated with honors at the Scuola del Fumetto. He moved back to Venice working as colourist with the thrash metal band Merendine. In 2004, with Alex Crippa, he released the comic book 100 Anime (ed. Delcourt). In 2005, he released Othon & Laiton and Wondercity. Between 2006 and 2007, he drew two volumes of Oeil de Jade (ed. Les Humanoïdes Associés). He then collaborated to Prediction (2007-2008), Arcane Majeur, Wisher, La Porte d'Ishtar (2008), Dei and 1066 (2011).
