The Naked CEO website selects students they regard as rising stars studying at universities internationally, and asks them what their hopes and career dreams are.
Carlo credits his parents' influence with the initial choice to study for an accounting degree, but says his interest in Information Systems grew as he became more aware of the increasing technological advancements that are used in major aspects of business.
"I also believe that having a major in both would give me an excellent foundation in doing business in the unpredictable workplace."
Carlo's goals include becoming a CEO of a large and well-respected organisation, which upholds its integrity to benefit not only the company itself but also society, and become a positive example for people doing business worldwide.
"Of course, I know I do not have to be a CEO of a large company to start being a positive role model, I try to leave a positive mark on people who I meet," he says.
To this end Carlo has looked for volunteering opportunities, both within Victoria University and in the wider community.
One of his first involvements was with CPA Australia, initially as a Student Ambassador.
"On my second year, I wanted to pass on my knowledge and experience to the new students, so I became a Campus Coach, Class Representative, and I'm planning on becoming a tutor for the upcoming year."
Outside of the university, Carlo decided to concentrate on those positions that would give him the most relevant experience for his Commerce Degree.
"I chose to become a Budget Adviser, which has not only taught me how to enable clients to become financially independent, it has given me experience in dealing with finance agencies such as banks and creditors on behalf of clients."
