Dear Delegates, 

My name is Bayaan El-Bawab and I am a Junior here at Lab. I’ve been a member of LabMUN since my freshman year and currently serve as one of LabMUN's Director Generals. At LABMUNC, I will be serving as the chair of the Egyptian Revolution Committee. Outside of MUN, I am an active member of our school’s theater community; acting, doing makeup, and directing. I love drawing, writing, and all types of art. I am very excited for delegates to dive into this complicated and nuanced topic and represent a wide spectrum of positions. I am looking forward to seeing lots of collaboration and compromise, as well as seeing how you all will work to change the outcome of history for better or for worse..

My name is Brian Yang, and I’m a sophomore at Lab. I’ve been in MUN since my freshman year, and I’ve found MUN to be a valuable experience, helping me learn skills such as public speaking and improving my ability to cooperate with other people. Outside of MUN, I do theater and play violin. I also enjoy hanging out with my friends and drawing in my free time. This year, I’m going to be the crisis director in our contemporary crisis. I’m excited for you to collaborate in the frontroom to work through crises and pass directives, while writing exciting arcs (and maybe doing some backstabbing!) in the backrooms. I’m looking forward to watching delegates change history, develop your skills in MUN, and most importantly, have fun!

Best, 

Bayaan El-Bawan and Brian Yang
