Secretary General

Hey everyone! I'm Darrius, a sophomore studying International Relations and Economics. I've been on Stanford's Model UN Team for the last year, and I've really enjoyed the warmth and camaraderie here. One of my favorite experiences in Model UN was mentoring juniors back in my High School, and I'm excited to do this in a new capacity: as Secretary-General of SMUNC! We've got awesome committees and staffers this year, and I'm excited to work with my team to make SMUNC warm and intellectually engaging :))

Director General

What’s good!? I’m Kyle, a sophomore studying international relations and data science! I’m beyond excited to be your Director General this year — my goal is to make your conference experience as fun and educational as possible. (emphasis on FUN! 🤫) I’m a true believer that people learn the most when they’re having a good time, so bring your energy!

Under Secretary-General of General Assemblies

Hey y'all! My name is Emma Esposito, and I am a second year from Raleigh, NC. I am studying Political Science and History, but am also interested in European (specifically German) studies, and anything international history! My favorite MUN experience was competing (and winning) at McMUN in Montreal this past January, and I love to make pottery, get an acai bowl, or go to the gym. I am looking forward to a spectacular SMUNC!

Under Secretary-General of Specialized Committees

Hey Everyone, I'm Adam. Welcome to SMUNC 29! At Stanford, I'm planning on majoring in Urban Studies and Political Science (I'm a big transportation fan). There are many things I love in the world, but a few in particular are YouTube travel videos, Atlases, wearing pins, and soccer. I'm excited to welcome everyone to campus for a weekend of fun Model UNing!

Under Secretary-General of Crisis Committees

Hi! I'm Alejandra Rincón, and I'm your USG of Crisis for this years' SMUNC. I'm a c/o 2028 International Relations major, and in my down time, I love making art and attending SIAS events. My favorite MUN experience has been chairing for the Hong Kong Specialized Committee last year! This year, I am looking forward to the very exciting committees that our chairs will be putting on.

Director of Media

I'm a sophomore studying Electrical Engineering and was an ITALIC arts residential student. I'm very passionate about environmental protections and social justice, which has fueled my interest in Model UN over the years. In my free time, I'm working on film photography, launching rockets, and thinking about SMUNC.

Director of Media

I’m a junior studying Political Science and Earth Systems. I am super excited to serve as Director of Media for SMUNC and looking forward to helping run a successful conference!

Director of Programming

Hi hi! I’m Minji and I’m excited to be the Director of Programming for this year’s SMUNC. I’m a current sophomore and on campus, I’m a part of SIAS and an ASSU Undergraduate Senator. My hobbies are Tetris and making balloon animals. I’ve actually never done MUN before (speech and debate rules!) but I’m excited to learn more about it this year :)

Crisis Consultant

Hello! My name is Elkin Mantilla. I am a senior studying International Relations with a focus in international security and Latin America. Meeting new people that share a passion for glorified LARPing has always been my favorite part of being in MUN. Come talk to me if you are a football fan (both American and soccer) and/or enjoy talking about Latin American politics!
