Academic Coordinator, GA and ECOSOC
Hello WorldMUNer’s,
My name is Sammy Barker and I’m so excited to be part of the Vancouver Host Team Committee for WorldMUN 2012. I partook in WorldMUN 2011 last year in Singapore and had such an amazing experience that when I was presented with the opportunity to recreate that experience here in Vancouver, there was no doubt in my mind that I would do it. The memories from MUN and WorldMUN that I have cultivated can’t be described in words so I’m glad that you up and coming WorldMUNer’s will be able to share in this amazing experience.
I am a 3rd year Honours Political Science and International Relations major here at UBC. I grew up in a rural time in the interior of British Columbia, but spent a lot of time in Eastern Asia and Mexico due to my parents’ careers. My love for politics and debate got me involved in MUN two years ago and I have no regrets. Other interests apart from MUN are dancing, yoga, shopping and escaping the beautiful UBC campus to explore the amazing sights lodged in Vancouver, British Columbia. I have so excited to share my home city with you! It took me only 3 days to fall in love with Vancouver so my goal is to make all you delegates fall in love with Vancouver too while you are here for WorldMUN.
See you in March 2012!
Cheers,
Sammy
