MacMUN Board Members

Joanna Clark
Secretary General

Joanna is a senior Cognitive Linguistics/Japanese double-major (totally related to MUN, right?). She's been doing Model UN for ten years, but enjoys the shiny newness of the New York conference. She enjoys color-coding her notes, three-hole punching, web design, and winning.

Kaitlin Roh
Director General

Kaitlin is a sophomore double majoring in Educational Studies and Political Science. This past year was her first time ever participating in Model UN, and she loved the experience in NYC. She cannot wait to go to another NMUN conference and bond with her amazing teammates as well as meet lots of new people.

Catie Skluzacek
Director of Correspondence

Catie is a senior majoring in Art History and minoring in Economics. She joined the team sophomore year after realizing how much she missed conferences, parliamentary procedure, and resolution-writing from her MUN days in high school. MUN at Mac proved even better than past experiences because the entirely student-directed organization gives every member a personal connection to the team and makes traveling with them that much more fun- can you say Magnolia, Ray's, and soup dumplings?

Helena Swanson-Nystrom
Director of Outreach

Helena is an International Studies & Political Science double major, in her senior year at Macalester. Her favorite thing about Model UN is spending a week in New York City, trying to find the cheapest meals possible and playing a college version on "pretend" with thousands of other delegates from around the world.

Elias Tezapsidis
Director of Finance

Elias is Greek. He is an International Studies major with an Economics concentration. He loves Model UN, because he enjoys working with the members, improving his social skills and is fond of the City adventure.
