Darla Torres

Darla Torres is a graduate student at the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs pursuing a Masters in Global Policy Studies under the Charles B. Rangel Graduate Fellowship. Born in Cuba and raised in Miami, she attended Williams College for her undergraduate studies and obtained a degree in Mathematics. Most of her work-study hours were spent teaching Spanish and Science at the local schools which inspired her to work in South Korea for three years as a Fulbright English Teaching Assistant. Her work in South Korea began at an all-boys high school in Gimhae, Gyeongsangnam-do, and ended with her last year of the grant at the Seoul Science High School. Darla hopes to channel her passion for education and cultural exchange to connect with others abroad and in her future work as a Foreign Service Officer.
