Graduated in Business Economics at the University of Genoa, Pastorino began his career in 2000 as a financial advisor, but his political career had already begun a few years earlier: from 1997 to 2006 he has been a city councilor in Bogliasco. In 2006, Pastorino has been elected Mayor of Bogliasco, supported by the centre-left coalition of The Union and held his seat for two consecutive terms, from 2006 to 2016.[1]

In occasion of the 2013 general election, Pastorino is elected to the Chamber of Deputies with the Democratic Party, and became one of the Giuseppe Civati's supporters inside the party.[2]

In 2015, together with Civati and few others, Pastorino leaves the Democratic Party[3] after having criticized Matteo Renzi's policies and, after Sergio Cofferati's proposal, ran for the charge of President of Liguria at the 2015 regional election, receiving support from Civati's new-born party Possible and Left Ecology Freedom:[4] Pastorino ranks fourth.

In occasion of the 2018 election, Pastorino is elected once again to the Chamber of Deputies with the left-wing coalition of Free and Equal becoming the only member of Possible elected to the Parliament.[5]
