Welcome! Serving in dais positions since NYUMUNC1, I am excited to serve this year's conference as Under Secretary-General of Administration. I am a senior studying International Relations and Economics and just spent an amazing semester abroad at the American University of Beirut in Lebanon in Spring 2012. Aside from my work for NYUMUNC IV, I also serve as President of the Roosevelt Institute @ NYU. I love to play volleyball, practice Arabic, and collect rings from my travels.

Hey there! I am a double major in Politics and Women and Gender studies. Though not Mexican by blood, I was born and raised there. As a member of the NYU Model UN Traveling Team, I will be bringing my experience and insight from other conferences to benefit our own and make it a truly unique experience on the circuit - there is nothing out there quite like NYUMUNC!

Guten Tag! I'm from Germany, but my mother is from Argentina giving me an international perspective on life. I'm in my senior year at NYU, and am majoring in English Literature and Journalism with a minor in Creative Writing. I have been on staff for the past two year's conferences and was a Crisis Director at NYUMUNC III. I can be often found scribbling in my notebook - I'm a writer, after all.
