Fellow delegates, ladies and gentlemen, people of the world,

My name is Rose and it is my pleasure to announce my position as an Alumni Associate for All-American MUN. I currently am a senior at Walter Payton College Prep, am a Board Director and Head Delegate for the Chicagoland MUN Club, and am Secretary-General of NIMUN, the largest middle school Model UN conference in the Midwest. I have a pretty comprehensive past with the All-American Team? my first conference with this group was NAIMUN, which was one of the best weekends of my life, and I came back to participate in the Stevenson Diplomacy Academy and the summer trips to WEMUN Expo and HMUN India. Through my involvement in All-American MUN, I have been able to not only improve my own skills and strategy as delegate, but I have visited some of the most interesting places in the world and met people I know that I will remain friends with for a while to come.

I’m also excited to announce that part of my role on this team involves being the regional representative for the Midwest, which includes the states of Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Ohio, Iowa, Kansas, and Nebraska. My home circuit is the Chicagoland circuit, and I have a lot of hometown pride, so I’m looking forward to becoming even more involved with the conferences and schools in this region and showing how Model UN in the Midwest can be just as interesting and intense as Model UN on the coasts.

I do have a life outside Model UN (though my All=American teammates like to joke that this is not the case) — I’m a member of my school’s slam poetry team, help run Poetry Club, and am an editor on the Payton Art and Lit Magazine. In my free time, I enjoy political punditry, classic novels, and trait theory. I’ll spend the year sharing my MUN exploits through All-American, from writing articles and quizzes to hosting video chats to interviewing Secretaries-General, but if you’re interested in reaching me for any reason, you can do so at [email protected].

Looking forward to an awesome year!
