Raul Torres, Jr. graduated from Huntington Park High School with honors from the Superintendent’s and Principal’s High Honor Rolls. He was a representative for the Academic Decathlon team where he was given a second-place award for the Interview Session. For the past 5 years he has
been involved with C5 Youth Foundation of Southern California (C5LA), a leadership program that helped him tremendously through hardships and reaching his goal of higher education and plans to continue to be part of
this organization in the future. Raul’s older brother works on electronics and mechanical systems to build robots. Inspired by his brother, he decided to major in Mechanical Engineering in the USC Viterbi School of Engineering. Outside of academics, Raul spends a great deal of time playing video games, going on long runs, and exploring the great city of Los Angeles where he states, “there is always something new to find.”
