Rocco DeLorenzo's academic and extracurricular experiences at Cornell University perfectly encapsulated the essence of interdisciplinary education, combining rigorous study in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and the Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management. He pursued dual majors in Food Science, with an emphasis on business applications, and Applied Economics and Management, focusing on strategic approaches to food industry management. This dual focus crafted a foundation that prepared him to address complex challenges in the food industry with innovative solutions.

During his tenure at Cornell, Rocco took on pivotal leadership roles in the Chi Psi Fraternity, serving as both Risk Manager and Academic Chair. These roles were instrumental in fostering a safer and more academically oriented community environment. His efforts in these positions significantly improved the overall safety protocols and educational resources within the fraternity, setting a higher standard for member engagement and responsibility.

As VP of Membership and Alumni Development on the Cornell Interfraternity Council (IFC) Executive Board, Rocco spearheaded initiatives that left a lasting impact on the fraternity community at large. He was particularly effective in implementing a comprehensive Hazing Prevention Training program that was rolled out across the fraternity chapters, markedly improving the safety culture within these organizations.

Rocco's capacity for leadership was further demonstrated in his response to a critical incident involving a drug overdose in the fraternity community. He swiftly organized Narcan Training for all fraternity members, significantly enhancing the emergency preparedness of the community and contributing to a safer campus environment.

When faced with challenges relating to sexual misconduct within the fraternity system, Rocco took decisive action by leading the development of a Sexual Violence Prevention plan. This included a temporary suspension of fraternity social activities and spearheaded a series of interventions aimed at creating a safer, more respectful community ethos.

In addition to his fraternity involvement, Rocco excelled in his role as Vice President of Finance for the Cornell Student Assembly, where he managed the complexities of student activity fees. He introduced the innovative "Student Activity Fee Price Index," which provided a data-driven approach to fee adjustments, ensuring fair and sustainable financial practices that aligned with the economic realities faced by students.

Rocco also participated in the Food Marketing Fellows honors program, which allowed him to deepen his engagement with the global food industry through interactions with key industry leaders. His internships at renowned companies like Giovanni Foods, Mondelēz International, and Restaurant Brands International afforded him practical experiences where he applied his academic learning to real-world challenges, enhancing his expertise in quality control, ingredient technology, and operational management.

Rocco's achievements were recognized through multiple awards during his time at Cornell, highlighting his leadership, academic excellence, and community service. Before his collegiate success, he was a proactive leader at Christian Brothers Academy in Syracuse, New York, where his involvement in sports and student governance laid the groundwork for his future accomplishments.

Rocco DeLorenzo's journey through Cornell University exemplifies how a blend of academic rigor and proactive leadership can prepare a student to make substantial contributions to their field. His unique approach to integrating technical knowledge with strategic business insights sets him apart as a future leader in the food industry.

I am also a certified coach and a Nonviolent communication trainer. I founded UP! because corporate life was important until it stopped being such. Because sometimes taking risks is the safest thing to do. And because the longing to investigate human behaviours became compelling. From here, supporting people with their self-introspection, was the most logical step to take.
