Passato professionista nel 1999, ho negli anni vestito le divise di Cantina Tollo, Saeco, Lampre, Acqua & Sapone, Quick Step, Fuji e Carmiooro. In carriera ho ottenuto tre vittorie, il Gran Premio Fred Mengoni, una tappa dell'Euskal Bizikleta in Spagna e il Trittico Lombardo, tutte nel 2006; come gregario ho invece contribuito ai successial Giro d'Italia di Gilberto Simoni nel 2003 e di Damiano Cunego nel 2004.
Sono stato per quattro anni convocato dalla nazionale italiana ai Campionati del Mondo (in un'occasione riserva), contribuendo ai successi in linea di Paolo Bettini nel 2007 a Stoccarda e di Alessandro Ballan nel 2008 a Varese. Annuncio il ritiro dall'attività agonistica nel gennaio 2011, rimango comunque nel mondo del ciclismo come Sport Manager del team UCI Continental D'Angelo & Antenucci-Nippo. Nel 2012 e 2013 ricopro la figura di Team Manager nel Team Nippo-De Rosa vincendo due Giri del Giappone, il giro di Malesia e conquistando oltre 40 gare in due anni, portando così il Team ad essere una delle formazioni di maggiore interesse nel mondo Asiatico.
Parallelamente dal 2011 inizio una nuova esperienza personale come co-founder & events manager di "Bike Division Tour Operator" specializzato esclusivamente in viaggi alle più importanti Granfondo nazionali ed internazionali e in viaggi per Cicloturisti con oltre 40 destinazioni a livello mondiale.
Grazie il mio Know How ed alla trentennale presenza/esperienza nel mondo del ciclismo e sportivo in genere sono stato avvicinato da diverse ed importanti aziende Leader nei loro mercati che mi hanno coinvolto in progetti di consulenza commerciale e marketing, legati sia al mondo ciclistico e cicloturistico in genere, ottenendo sin da subito ottimo riscontro professionale.
