In my first two years of OLMUN, 2021 and 2022, I participated as an Administrative Staff and as a delegate. This helped me gain first insights into the conference and to feel the so-called OLMUN-spirit. The following year I had the chance to attend a MUN in Vancouver, Canada, as I was there for an exchange year. I enjoyed this experience a lot, but it also made me appreciate the opportunities that OLMUN offers with students organising the week themselves.

When I came back, I knew that I wanted to continue participating in OLMUN and helping to organise and coordinate the event. Therefore I joined the Inner Circle and took on the position of Chief of Press last year. I enjoyed both fulfilling my responsibilites in this position as well as working in the Inner Circle and being a part of all those who help to make the conference happen. What stuck with me was seeing the chances for young people to take on responsibility and gain valuable experiences in organising the conference and participating in it.

I'm very excited to have been given the chance to be Deputy Secretary General this year. Together with the Secretariat, I am looking forward to creating an OLMUN 2025 that builds on the success of the previous OLMUNs and brings in new ideas. Together with the Secretariat and the Inner Circle, I look forward to creating a welcoming environment for the participants and making OLMUN 2025 a memorable event for everyone involved.
