Vinnie is known to be your typical Bostonian stud walking around campus. He works hard throughout the day by studying for his double major and minor, but he also plays hard on the weekends at the local frat house ZBT. This junior hottie has more surprising secrets that meets the eye. Interested? Read to find out more!
HerCampus: It is not unusual for a Brandeis student to have multiple major and minors. So, why did you choose all of yours?
Vinnie: I’ve always had a certain fascination with American History and with American culture in general. I find there’s always something new to learn about the greatest country in the world. With respect to my minor in Business, I enjoy the creative thinking that can come out of business and the places it can take you in life.
HC: What do you see yourself doing in the future with these majors?
V: Hopefully I’ll use the knowledge and experience I’ve gotten at Brandeis to get a job in financing, in the area around Boston
HC: What are you doing to aid this goal now?
V: Well, I was recently hired as a Management Information Systems Intern at ACI Worldwide in Waltham. I’m really excited to immerse myself into a business setting.
HC: That’s great! Congrats! What are you doing around campus to keep yourself busy and active aside from schoolwork?
V: I’m a brother of Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity and I’m proud to know every one of my brothers and to have shared the “experiences” we’ve had. In my free time, I enjoy playing my guitar. I took piano and guitar lessons as a child, and it’s something that will stay with me forever. My rendition of Adele’s “Someone Like you” is nearly pitch-perfect
HC: What is something interesting/quirky about yourself that people wouldn’t normally think of when they first meet you?
V: If I could, I would be Batman in a heartbeat. That’s my real dream job. The hero that Brandeis deserves but not the one it needs right now.”
