LONDON - s4story -- I recently had the pleasure of talking with Raphael E. Cuomo, PhD from the University of California, San Diego.

He attended St. Paul the Apostle School before enrolling at Loyola High School of Los Angeles, where he graduated with honors in 2007 and earned the prestigious Eagle Scout Award.
