Celina Qu
USG of Conference
A sophomore at Semiahmoo Secondary, Celina is ecstatic to serve as the USG of Conference for AbbyMUN 2022. Between waging nuclear war in the Senate and narrowly escaping annexation in the Historical Cabinet, she has come to treasure all the meticulously crafted speeches and everlasting friendships woven within Hyatt Regency’s committee rooms. She has grown familiar with wading through chandelier-lit ballrooms for opening ceremonies and sleepless midnight crises alike—has grown to love the nuanced political discussion and intricate policy exploration that MUN stands for. When not writing her next directive, Celina can be found struggling to decipher Akkadian cuneiform, replaying yet another indie Metroidvania game, and watching Arch Linux send a torpedo through her laptop for the twelfth time. She hopes that CAIMUN will be an unforgettable conference for everyone, and looks forward to meeting all delegates in November!

When Ayaan is not participating in MUN, he enjoys performing in his school band and playing sports such as golf, soccer, and baseball.

A high school student at St. Michaels University school in Victoria BC, Yingfan has the utmost honour of serving as the Director for UNFAO and USG of Media at AbbyMUN 2022. Ever since her first MUN conference 3 years ago, Yingfan has grown increasingly invested in the activity. Her progression from a five-second speech to the speaker she is today would have been impossible without the support of her friends and the various staff members she has met along the way. Outside the committee room, Yingfan can be found dancing, swimming, watching Netflix, or hanging out with friends. Yingfan looks forward to meeting all delegates and sincerely hopes that AbbyMUN 2022 will be a weekend full of memories and new friendships.
Ethan is a high school student, currently studying on Vancouver Island, and is ecstatic to be serving as this year's USG of IT at AbbyMUN.

Through serving on the secretariat team at AbbyMUN, Ethan is hoping to help beginner delegates gain a similar set of memories and friendships to those he has accumulated over the past few years. Outside the exhilarating world of MUN, Ethan spends his time practicing and competing in tennis tournaments, playing the violin and piano, programming, and enjoying music. Ethan hopes to make AbbyMUN 2022 an enjoyable experience for all delegates, and looks forward to meeting them!
