A member of the Arte dei Legnaioli (woodworkers' guild), he was one of the planned architects on the Loggia della Signoria (1379) in Florence.
In 1381 he was examined and declared fit to take up Republican offices in Florence.
He rose through the ranks, from Castellan of Frassino (1385) then of Pistoia (1390), then multiple terms as Priore di Libertà (1396 and 1407) then Gonfaloniere di Compagnia (1400, 1405, 1412, 1416).
Though in 1412 he was suspected of involvement with the Alberti counts, declared a rebel and exiled, he was pardoned around 1416, when he took up office as castellan of Torre di Sant’Alberto and Casseretto ad Arezzo.
