Before entering politics, he held manager positions at Alitalia, ATI, Alfa Romeo, Aeritalia and Spi.
“For me he was a friend, one of those people who were able to give weight to words and appreciate gestures. Today we have lost a figure who left a deep mark on our political community. My most sincere closeness goes to his wife Bruna, his children Davide and Serena”, continued Martusciello. The Association of Campanian Journalists also expressed its condolences to the family.
