Secretariat

I began my journey as a Model UN delegate in 2017 within the high school circuit. Having served as a Secretary-General for my high school’s local conference and the University of Miami’s high school conference MICSUN this past year, I am so excited to be applying my experience to the collegiate competitive circuit! Outside of MUN, I am currently a Research Assistant at the University of Miami Psychology Department, Student Tutor, and proud member of Delta Delta Delta. You can also find me spending time with my friends at the beach or exploring new restaurants in Miami!

Wah gwan, brethren (that’s Jamaican patois for What’s up, guys!)! My name is Osei Allen, and I am pleased to be your USG for General Assemblies at our first ever 305MUN! As a rising sophomore at University of Miami, I’m currently pursuing majors in Psychology and Political Science on the pre-law track, with minors in Law and Politics and Music/Cello Performance. I was born in Montego Bay, Jamaica (hence the Jamaican greeting) and raised in Naples, Florida, and I have been involved with MUN as a primarily GA delegate and chair since my freshman year of high school. Outside of MUN, I mentor local high school students as part of UMiami’s Inspire U Academy, work in the PRIDE (Psychology of Racism, Identity, Diversity and Equity) Lab as a Research Assistant, and I’m a cellist for the University’s own Frost Symphony Orchestra. In my free time, I love playing pickup basketball, riding my bike around campus, and, you guessed it, enjoying some fantastic Jamaican food. I’m super excited to contribute to the planning of a style of MUN as engaging as GA, and I look forward to facilitating a good time for all GA delegates at the one and only 305MUN!

Hello everyone! I’m Zayn Dalao and I have the honor of serving as your Under Secretary-General of Crisis and Specialized Committees. Currently, I am a rising-sophomore majoring in Biochemistry and Nutrition on the Pre-Med track, with minors in Health Management and Policy and Chemistry. Outside of academics, I spend most of my time in the gym, talking to my friends, or teaching Arabic. I hope to not only bring you all a conference you will remember, but one that serves an educative purpose as well. I’d like to thank you all for coming to Miami and welcome to 305MUN!

Hi everyone!! I am Leah Verwohlt, your USG of Logistics. I am a rising sophomore at UMiami studying Business Technology, Marketing, and International Business. I am a part of Model UN, American Marketing Association, Delta Sigma Pi (best professional frat ever), Alpha Delta Pi, and a marketing intern at Red Bull. In my free time (which I have very little of) you can find me either listening to Taylor Swift/The Weeknd or exploring the millions of places to go in Miami with my friends, or sleeping. On a serious note, I chose to be a part of the secretariat because I have been a part of so many successful conferences at other schools that I have become passionate about making a great first one for the University of Miami. Can’t wait to see you all soon LYGC!
