New Graduate Padalino is the N.J. Student Entrepreneur of the Year
Like most entrepreneurs, Vincent Padalino was drawn by the lure of earning money. Selling graphics T-shirts out of the trunk of his car, Padalino, then a student at Lawrence High School, was creating shirts one at a time to fill specific orders. Still, it was as much a way to meet people as it was a revenue generator.
“After a while, though, I started making some decent money and it got serious,” said Padalino, who earned his bachelor’s degree in Entrepreneurial Studies at Rider’s Commencement 2009 ceremonies on May 15. McNair Scholar Heads to Harvard, New England Conservatory
