He was ordained a deacon on 15 April 1696 and ordained a priest on 23 April 1696.[2] On 21 May 1696, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Innocent XII as Bishop of Anagni.[1][2] On 3 June 1696, he was consecrated bishop by Bandino Panciatici, Cardinal-Priest of San Pancrazio, with Prospero Bottini, Titular Archbishop of Myra, and Sperello Sperelli, Bishop of Terni, serving as co-consecrators.[2] He served as Bishop of Anagni until his death on 31 May 1708.[2]
