summa cum laude from UC Berkeley I believe. They definitely downplayed his job description. Something like "entrepreneur" would be more fitting (and he actually is one lol, not just a glorified version of someone who's unemployed).

Yeah, I had no idea until I stumbled on the real info.

I think the producer's short shrifted him.

Either that or he thought it would be funny?

Definitely makes me wish we'd gotten to see more of him, to find out that he is actually quite interesting.

Wow, Alejandro is a really impressive guy and to be a cancer survivor as well. I wonder how silly some of this seemed to him?

by IntanFA14 Mon Jun 11, 2012 1:06 pm

He is impressive and gorgeous as well. He has achieved so much in his young age and survived cancer. Seriously, I'm embarrased considering what time I've wasted with my life while this genius man continue on achieving all his awards. Loving the environmental aspect of his company as well. Too bad he didn't get much airtime.

Did he has any twitter or FB?

While he's so ridiculously goregous, the more I learn about him the more attractive he becomes! Sucks we didn't get to more of him. Obviously he and wasn't meant for Emily (just me, laugh out loud

J/k my husband is going to kill me, laugh out loud

) but I wish we got to see more of him with the guys. I had no idea he is a cancer survivor, God Bless him. He is truly remarkable! Oh and super Goregous! :Flirty:
