President
Charlotte Zhou
Hi, I’m Charlotte and I am MVMUN’s co-president this year! I’m currently a junior and joined MVMUN in freshman year. Through MUN, I got the opportunity to really put myself out there and cultivate lifelong public speaking, negotiation, and leadership skills, and it’s an experience I’d recommend to anyone! Aside from MUN, I’m interested in art and the sciences. Feel free to reach out to me whenever you want for any questions, concerns, or just to talk. I’m looking forward to another exciting year!
President
Anushka Kumaran
Hi, I’m Anushka and I am co-president of MVMUN this year! I joined MVMUN in my freshman year and I am currently a junior. I’ve always been passionate about public speaking and political science and through Model UN I was able to meet and work with so many amazing people and gain more valuable experience in these fields. My favorite part of MUN is working and discussing global issues with other delegates, learning about different perspectives and gaining a greater understanding of the world around me. Outside of MUN I enjoy baking, volunteering, playing the trumpet and biking! I’m very excited for the coming year and always feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!
Vice President
Jerry Wang
Hey, I’m Jerry and I’m super excited to be your VP this year! I joined MUN freshman year and after a lot of all-nighters, Model U.N still retains its appeal and enjoyable-ness to me currently as a Junior. I’ve been passionate about public speaking and geography from the beginning––and through Model U.N, I have been able to meet people from all around the world, discussing some of the most important modern day topics that humanity is still working to resolve. MUN really strengthens your ability to think critically, as well as gaining cultural perspectives and being more aware of global issues. Outside of MUN, I really enjoy listening to my favorite music, cooking, as well as socializing. I really hope that you gain some valuable experience from MUN while also enjoying the process; and MUN really is just a community, so we are all here for you!

Head of Training
Riya Murthy
Hi everyone! I’m Riya and I’m super excited to be your Head of Training this year! I’m currently a junior at MVHS, and have been doing MUN for six years — since my first year of middle school. MUN is a super thrilling experience that alongside teaching you political relationships and real-world issues, allows you to learn about public speaking and coming up with speeches on the fly. Outside of MUN, I enjoy reading, writing (both with El Estoque and doing poetry), as well as editing (for a competition called Polyphony Lit). Looking forward to meeting you all!
Training
Ganesh Batchu
Hi, my name is Ganesh Batchu, and I am the Training Officer this year! I started MUN at Kennedy in 7th Grade, and continued it when I moved into high school. Some of the things that I enjoy a lot about MUN are crisis committees, and also forming a close bond with partners at various competitions. Some other things I enjoy are reading, programming, and volunteering at various events.
Logistics
Lily Jiang
Hi, I’m Lily and I’m a logistics officer this year! I joined Model UN as a freshman and this is my third year in MUN! My favorite part about MUN is forming resolutions with other delegates and meeting people from different parts of the country/world in the same committee. Outside of MUN, I enjoy binging shows, playing the violin, and hanging out with my dog!
Logistics
Sitong Jian
Hi, I'm Sitong and I'm a logistics officer this year! I joined Model UN during my sophomore year. I'm mainly a crisis committee guy since I enjoy the fast-paced nature and the sheer insanity present. My favorite aspect of Model UN is messing with people in committees. Outside of Model UN, I'm a member of marching band and orchestra. I'm into alternate history, worldbuilding, and video games.
PR
Pranav Gupta
Hi, my name is Pranav Gupta and I am the PR officer this year. I joined Model UN back in middle school and have been involved since. I’ve always been pretty good at speaking, so I joined MUN. Other than Model UN, I like bouldering, playing soccer, and meeting new people.
Webmaster
Ethan Kellogg
Hi, my name is Ethan Kellogg and I will be your webmaster this year. I joined model UN as a freshman and have been participating in it for 2 years. At first, I wasn't too sure about model UN as I was a bad speaker. However, I really enjoyed the arguing and debate aspect of model UN so I stuck with it. Other than model UN, I enjoy playing the trombone and programming. I'm excited to help maintain the website so that members will have a better experience with the club.
