Career

In roller skating

Guarise was originally a roller skater and won the 2008 World title with Sara Venerucci.[1] He ended his roller career in 2009 and moved to Milan.[2]

Switch to figure skating

In January 2010, Guarise began training in figure skating.[1][3] In June 2010, it was reported that he had teamed up with Elena Yarkhunova and was training with her under coach Oleg Vasiliev in Saint Petersburg, Russia and Chicago, Illinois.[3][4] After their partnership ended, he skated with Kaela Pflumm and Caitlin Yankowskas.[1][5]

Partnership with Della Monica

Guarise teamed up with Nicole Della Monica in late November 2011.[6][7] They train mainly in Zanica.[8] They withdrew after the short program from the 2012 Italian Championships. Della Monica/Guarise made their international debut at the 2012 Bavarian Open where they won the bronze medal. They were assigned to compete at the 2012 World Championships and finished 15th.

Della Monica/Guarise placed 9th at the 2013 European Championships and then 14th at the 2013 World Championships, where Italy secured two berths for the 2014 Olympic pairs event. After winning bronze at the 2013 Winter Universiade and silver at the 2014 Italian Championships, they placed eighth at the 2014 European Championships. Della Monica/Guarise were named along with Italian champions Stefania Berton / Ondrej Hotarek as Italy's pairs entries for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. Just before the event, Guarise tore the medial meniscus in his right knee.[9][10] The pair finished 16th at the Olympics. He then underwent a knee operation and resumed training at the start of March.[10]

In the 2014–15 season, Della Monica/Guarise competed at two Grand Prix events, placing 5th at the 2014 Cup of China and 6th at the 2014 Trophée Éric Bompard. After finishing second to Valentina Marchei / Ondřej Hotárek at the Italian Championships, they came in 6th at the 2015 European Championships in Stockholm, Sweden and 14th at the 2015 World Championships in Shanghai, China.

In 2015–16, Della Monica/Guarise took the bronze medal at the 2015 Ice Challenge, their first ISU Challenger Series (CS) event. After finishing fifth at their sole GP event, the 2015 Trophée Éric Bompard, they appeared at two more CS events, winning silver at the Warsaw Cup and placing 6th at the 2015 Golden Spin of Zagreb. In December 2015, they won their first national title together, edging out Marchei/Hotárek.
