LACY KImberling
Director-general

Lacy is a senior at NYU’s Stern School of Business studying Accounting and Finance, a part of the BS/MS in Accounting Program on the CPA track.  Although her major is not directly of Model UN nature, she enjoys being involved in the debate as well as meeting new people both from NYU and visiting schools.  Lacy joined Model UN in her freshman spring semester as a crisis analyst, then as a chair for the historical joint-crisis committee for NYUMUNC X and most recently as AUSG of Personnel for NYUMUNC XI.  When not working on NYUMUNC, Lacy can be found mentoring other students as a Peer Mentor, assisting with the school’s newest club, The Private Equity Group, or enjoying her favorite coffee shop, Whistle and Fizz. 

Lacy is looking forward to serving as the Director-General of NYUMUNC XI to make it the best conference yet, despite the challenges that may arise.

Assistant under secretary-general of content

Lin-Lin is in her 5th year of doing MUN, she is a sophomore studying Environmental Science and Public Policy.

So, as an AUSG of Content for NYUMUNCXI, she hopes that she can give you exciting, interactive worlds to do some shenanigans with. Up to help mess with your chair or crisis anytime-- call her beep me if you wanna reach me.

candice medina
assistant under secretary-general of delegate affairs

Candice is a Senior in NYU's College of Arts and Sciences studying Psychology with a concentration in Cognitive Neuroscience on the Pre-Med track. She's also double minoring in Chemistry and Anthropology? BioEthics? That last one's a work in progress. In addition to being your AUSG of Delegate Affairs, she is the Vice President of NYUMUN and runs its Travel Team with her two wonderful Head Delegates. 

Outside of MUN, you can find Candice in the ICU's of Mount Sinai Medical Center treating delirium patients, running a nonprofit organization, researching organ transplantation, and studying for the MCAT *sobbs in sleep deprivation*. Since quarantine, Candice realized she should have developed more hobbies beyond shopping and going out to eat (side note: soft tacos >> hard tacos, she will fight anyone who says otherwise). Candice does, however, enjoy having impromptu One Direction and Jonas Brothers concert nights with her roommate, watching various sci-fi/fantasy shows and movies, reading in Washington Square Park, and practicing Martial Arts. Since she’s Pavlov'd herself into only being able to work in cafes, you'll always find her highly caffeinated. Candice is incredibly excited to be part of NYUMUNC XI Secretariat and looks forward to meeting you all in the spring. Please feel free to reach out with questions, concerns, or just to say hi and introduce yourself!
