Chair: Akina Souphakdy, akina.souphakdy@mgschools.net
Hello Everyone! My name is Akina Souphakdy and I will be one of your chairs for the EU this year! I go to Monona Grove and will be Juinor this school year. A fun fact about me my favorite artist of all time is Noah Kahan you could talk to me about his music forever! Some clubs I do are BSU(Students of Color Union), Asian Club, Ceramics Club, and of course MUN! One thing about me is I was going through a Starbucks drive-thru and ran the curb in my aunt's car and never told her to this day. ( I plan on never telling her). I have been in MUN for 3 years now as a delegate and this year will be my first time chairing MADMUN. In my time at MUN, I have been in every committee type possible and had so much fun with them! My favorite sim to do will always be “Is a hotdog a Sandwich” because it always gets everybody talking and is always so silly!
I look forward to meeting you all at MADMUN and am super excited to work with you all!
Chair: Sammy Ross, srossthemathdragon@gmail.com
Hi! My name is Sammy Ross and I am honored to be one of your chairs for MADMUN 2023! I am a senior at Madison West High School, and cannot wait to work with you all this year.
I love studying mathematics and history because they promote critical thinking, one of the same reasons I love Model UN! A few of my other hobbies include Tae-Kwon-Do, Chess, and Super Smash Brothers. Through everything I do, I love tinkering with my techniques or strategies, always making sure my next move is interesting whether it becomes a blunder or accidental genius. Out of everything I enjoy, I value novelty the most. My favorite movie is “The Tale of the Princess Kaguya”, which I mention as I believe everyone should watch the movie at least once in their life. It has profound character depth and beauty, but the experience of watching it is truly indescribable. This is my third year in both MADMUN and Model UN in general, and it is my first year as a chair. Although I am new as a chair, I am very familiar with the other side of the committee and my fun experiences as a delegate inspired me to take on my position.
Feel free to reach out to me or either of my group members if you have any questions! We cannot wait to see you all at MADMUN!
Sim: Colin Corr, corrc12@muhs.edu
Hello European Union delegates! My name is Colin Corr, and I will be the sim for your conference this MADMUN cycle. I am currently a Junior at Marquette University High School in Milwaukee. This year is my second year involved with Model UN, and I am excited to work as a part of the leadership for my school’s club of delegates this year. So far, MADMUN this year will be my third time participating in a Model UN conference, and I am more than excited to work with the staff because of how much I personally value MADMUN. Last year’s MADMUN was my first ever Model UN conference, and everyone involved in my committee showed me just how amazing Model UN really can be. Even though I entered the day not even knowing parliamentary procedure, I left with an award win and the conference experience to win recognition at MUNUC in February. My point is to urge all of you to branch out this conference cycle. Don’t be afraid to speak, and share your ideas. Not only does it help the conference move, but it’s also pretty fun for everyone involved. Now, I wish everyone luck in preparing for MADMUN this year, and I’m so excited to work with you all in November!
