Adam Ziccardi is a graduate of Cornell University with a major in Religious Studies and a minor in East Asian Studies.
Although he originally enrolled as an environmental engineer with plans for starting an outdoor-based STEM camp, his travels to Haiti, Italy, and Japan inspired him to change his study to his deeper interests in culture, history, and philosophy through Religious Studies.
Adam plans to enroll in a graduate program in theology or philosophy, with the intent of becoming a professor or a lawyer, for the sake of expanding and improving classical Christian and Catholic schools.
As a musician, Adam also enjoys playing the French Horn, jazz piano, and the accordion.
