Ferrara entered the adult industry in 1997 after winning a competition. He works in both European and American pornography. He often performs in films with Rocco Siffredi, John Strong, Steve Holmes, and Erik Everhard. He is also a director for Evil Angel.

Ferrara is noted as having an exceptionally large penis. In Two in the Seat #3, Taylor Rain stated after a double penetration by Ferrara and Steve Holmes, that Ferrara's penis has the girth of a Budweiser can. Joanna Angel made the same remark about his penis on her website.
