Aside from Model UN, she is a part of Take Back the Night, a national organization focused on sexual assault prevention and awareness.

SOFIA LITTLE

Co-Chair

Sofia Little is a third-year Global Studies and Political Science double major from Palo Alto, CA (and has a Bay Area superiority complex because of this). She has been doing Model UN since her freshman year of high school and fell in love with the debate and discussion of international diplomacy, which drove her to continue into college. Outside of MUN, you can catch Sofia at the scene shop building sets for the school productions, reading at the beach, and drinking boba/coffee. Sofia is also beyond excited to be studying abroad in the Fall of 2024 at Rio de Janeiro! After graduation, Sofia hopes to join the Peace Corps, hoping it will be life-altering and help her figure out what she wants to do for the rest of her life.

VICKY BAI

Co-Chair

Vicky Bai is a third-year economics and data science major from Saratoga, California. Vicky loves frolicking and dilly dallying. She is absolutely ecstatic to talk about the political and economic state of the world. Vicky accepts gratitude through venmo anytime.
