&lt;p&gt;On this episode of &lt;em&gt;As Spiders Do&lt;/em&gt;, Vincent Olivieri, &amp;#39;98 shares how a Richmond education shaped a lifelong creative path from math major to sound designer and composer. He reflects on the unexpected lessons that stuck with him, the role of empathy and “the next right thing” in a nonlinear career, and how U of R’s curiosity-driven community helped launch a life of making, teaching, and exploring new ideas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Editing by Maggie Johnson, &amp;#39;18, Associate Director, Regional &amp;amp; Young Grad Engagement.
