Meet the Team
What is SGMUN?
SGMUN, Sun God MUN, is the first collegiate-level conference hosted by UCSD Model United Nations. This is a new step in the direction of our organization, as we have hosted only high school level conferences for over a decade. Our event will be for three days from April 5th – 7th, 2024. It will consist of five committees and one sizable social event on the beach. The event will be held on the UCSD campus. TritonMUN is our high school conference, and some of you may have participated in it during high school. The work ethic of our entire team during TritonMUN and abroad at conferences will shine during SGMUN. We hope you enjoy the conference and hope to see you again next year.

Tahrir is a second year neurobiology major major at ERC and has done MUN for three years in high school alongside one year at UCSD for four years total. Originally, he comes from Bakersfield, a beautiful city in the Central Valley notorious for breathtaking scenery. For nonresidents, that prior statement is a joke. Other than MUN, other activities he enjoys include reading political theory or light novels/manga, listening to music, staying connected to friends with the infinite power of the Internet, and going to the gym. Feel free to ask him about his interests if you see him at SGMUN!
