SECRETARIAT

Eva Friedman is a senior at Seattle Academy and is so honored to serve as the Secretary-General for SAASMUN’s first-ever iteration! Eva’s MUN experience began in freshman year, when she haphazardly joined a club she knew nothing about with the encouragement of her history teacher. Her first conference was an absolute crash and burn, but the thrill in the room brought her back. Before she knew it, Eva had travelled as far as Washington D.C. to compete and joined the staff for the Pacific Northwest’s largest conference. With a regional “Best Delegate” award, an international "Honorary Mention,” and two years spent staffing PACMUN’s IPC dais, Eva is proud to open the doors of her school to MUN delegates with this brand new conference. She hopes that SAASMUN 2026 will not only be a conference to remember for Seattle Academy, but also one that inspires new MUN-ers like she was to jump head first into the Model UN world. When she isn’t sitting in committee, you might catch Eva scrambling to finish homework, dancing on a stage, or sheepishly buying her third Anchorhead coffee of the day. She is ecstatic to meet this year’s incredible delegates and looking forward to making this very first conference an unforgettable, magical experience!

Paige Weiskopf is a senior at Seattle Academy who is excited to serve as the Assistant-General for SAASMUN 2026. Crisis is her favorite type of conference, and she’s very excited to create updates. She joined Model UN in her sophomore year and hasn’t looked back since. Her favorite part of MUN is passing notes and conspiring to do the unexpected in crisis committees. In addition, she is happy to help anyone if needed. Outside of MUN, she can be found strumming her guitar, reading, playing with her dogs, and making art. Paige cannot wait to see you in committee!

Owen Z. Siebers is a junior at Seattle Academy and is beyond ecstatic to be serving as your USG of Technology at SAASMUN 2026! When he’s not cooking up position papers or firing off definitely-not-improvised speeches, you can find him indulging in programming, anti-procrastinating his homework, nerding out over public transit systems, or curled up in a good book. Owen started his MUN journey in his freshman year at PACMUN 2024, desperately trying to figure out what the heck he was supposed to do in committee. Since then, he’s participated in 9 conferences across a variety of committee types and won a Best Position Paper award.

Agnes is cool

Adam is a peak human

Aife Sullivan is a junior at Seattle Academy. She is so excited to be acting as the USG of Logistics for the first year of SAASMUN. She started MUN as a bewildered sophomore, new to the school and to the world of Model UN. Sitting in her first conference, she was in awe of how cool the dais seemed. She fell in love with Model UN, from debating laws to writing resolutions. She’s attended all sorts of conferences and traveled to Chicago and California. When she isn’t participating in Model UN, you can find her stressing about choir, procrastinating schoolwork, and making plans with her friends.

Jasmine Darlow is a senior at Seattle Academy and is excited to serve as USG of Media and Communications for SAASMUN 2026. Her MUN journey began at EDUMUN 2023, where she spent most of committee staging coups in the African Union. Since then, she has attended several conferences, with her favorite being at UC Berkeley this past March. Outside of MUN, Jasmine enjoys playing various sports, like lacrosse, and experimenting with new cake recipes when she should be doing her schoolwork. She also has a slight obsession with Red Bull Italian sodas, so feel free to share flavor recommendations! For SAASMUN 2026, Jasmine is looking forward to meeting all of the delegates and watching their MUN skills grow!

Kate is cool

Maidelyn Lopez is a senior at Seattle Academy who is super beyond hyped to be serving as SAASMUN's USG of Delegate Experience! Not only is she a big collector of trinkets like calico critters and smiskis but she’s also a big insect and plant nerd(while it might sound disgusting she does have a collection of pinned insects and pressed flowers). Some of her hobbies include sewing, robotics, playing tennis and ice skating. Ever since her first MUN conference her sophomore year, she’s fallen in love with the MUN environment and she’s become very involved with her school's club. Her favorite part of MUN is writing resolutions and position papers so if you guys want any feedback or tips then feel free to ask! Outside of MUN you will find her complaining about her upcoming math tests and procrastinating her next American studies essay. Overall she is excited to be serving PACMUN 2025 and she hopes to meet you all!

Helena is cool
