Cesare started his diving activity in 1991. Since 2003, he has been a Technical Instructor, and since 2004, a Technical & Trimix Instructor Trainer.


Cesare has a great interest in wrecks and their historical events. He has taken part in many IANTD Expeditions: in 2003 on the Austro-Hungarian wreck Szent Istvan in Croatia, in 2004 he was in charge of security on the German transatlantic wreck Wilhelm Gustloff in the Baltic Sea, in 2005, after having founded the Italian Battleship Regina Margherita, he was in Albania for the expedition on it, and he also localized the hospital ship Po. In 2007, still in Albania, he discovered two other Italian ships: the torpedo boat Intrepido and the steamship transport troops Re Umberto.


Over the years, he has managed numerous other explorations on wrecks in the southern Adriatic Sea, including Albania and Montenegro. In 2007, he co-directed a research project to find and identify contemporary wrecks to promote and develop Albanian culture and improve tourism along its coasts. This project was approved by the Ministry of Tourism, Culture, Youth, and Sports of the Republic of Albania.


Since 2012, Cesare has also collaborated with SCUBAZONE, the Italian diver magazine, and the SCUBAPORTAL website, where he writes articles about wrecks. Since March 2015, he has been a member of The Explorers Club of New York. Today, he continues to collaborate with NAUTICA MARE Verona, DIVING GROUP Portofino, and LORENZO SUB Diving Center Fiumaretta La Spezia, where he is in charge of training instructors.


Currently, he is participating as an IANTD Diver in the HETIDA project, which approaches safeguarding and protecting Europe’s coastal and underwater cultural heritage from the effects of climate change and natural hazards in a holistic manner that includes risk management, protection, and preparedness.
