BMUN LXX PRESS

Hi everyone!  I am Derek Yao, your Head Chair for Press Corps for BMUN 70. I am a Junior studying English and Cognitive Science, and I am extremely excited to meet you all! Journalism has always been a large part of my life, so this topic really hits close to my heart. This is my second year at BMUN, and I previously got the chance to help chair for committees like UNICEF, but Model UN was incredibly present in my high school experience. Besides school, I love to watch reality TV shows and play volleyball. Excited to meet you guys!

  Hello!  This is your vice chair, Anushree Gupte. I am a senior studying Neurobiology and Education at UC Berkeley. I have been a delegate at MUN conferences since 2014 and chaired since 2016. I joined BMUN three years ago and have had the pleasure of chairing for Press Corps and NGO Forum. I do research about the brain (ask me more I am a little obsessed with this). I have also done research on the mental health assessment of asylum seekers. I am an international student: Indian but lived in Oman. I am super passionate about our topics and can't wait to work with you!
