Educational
Assemblies
Riccardo has put on assemblies internationally for elementary schools up to colleges. The most requested topics being mental health and self-love; where he discusses his experience watching his mother try to commit suicide and him contemplating suicide and hating his life. He uses his story to show others that there is light at the end of the tunnel. He also talks about the importance of college; bringing in guest college students to speak about the different majors and clubs that they can be involved in on campus as college students. This gets students thinking at a young age about all that college has to offer and all the different career paths that are out there. His third most popular topic is perseverance and self-responsibility. Riccardo talks about how he went from being homeless and having a 0.8 GPA to a full ride to college and traveling the world working for himself doing what he loves. Lastly, he has anti-bullying events where he talks about how he was bullied for having burns on his body that were the cause of abuse and the tools he used to overcome that time in his life.
