Secretary-General
Jasmine Yazid
Jasmine Yazid is a member of the Class of 2026 in the Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University. She is majoring in Culture and Politics with minors in Chinese and International Development. She was born in New Jersey, but has spent the majority of her childhood living across Europe before returning to the United States. She was a member of her high school’s Model UN team, going to NAIMUN as a delegate. She has previously served as a Rapporteur for the World Health Organization at NAIMUN LX, as a Director for SOCHUM at DISTRICTMUN, Georgetown’s middle school MUN conference, and as a crisis analyst for NCSC, Georgetown’s collegiate conference.
Outside of NAIMUN, Jasmine has been a part of her school’s equestrian team, serves as a deputy on the Academic Council, and tutors students in English. For fun, she likes to spend her days showing people pictures of her golden retriever, drinking vanilla iced lattes while in a rush to class, and “studying” (chatting) with her friends in the school library.
At NAIMUN LXII, Jasmine had the privilege of serving as one of the Under-Secretaries-General of Economic & Social Councils, where she fell in love with her role and saw firsthand the impact NAIMUN had on the delegates. Thanks to her experience USGing, she learned how to curate a substantively strong slate of committees that would excite and push delegates in their thinking. Jasmine’s experience as a USG proved to her that NAIMUN is so much more than a Model UN conference: she saw just how formative committee and debate can be in letting a delegate’s skills and passion bloom. She has also gained a fundamental understanding of how to organize one unforgettable conference weekend.
Jasmine is honored to serve as the Secretary-General of NAIMUN LXII, and cannot wait to bring her and Jie Xin’s vision for the conference to life. She hopes that all delegates walk away from NAIMUN having learnt something new, having gained a new friend, and most importantly, having had fun. She cannot wait to welcome delegates to DC this upcoming February, and hope that they take full advantage of all of the resources NAIMUN has to offer!
Executive Director
Jie Xin Ching
Jie Xin Ching (pronounced: jay-shin) is a member of the Class of 2026 in the Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University. She is majoring in International Politics with a focus in Foreign Policy and pursuing an Asian Studies certificate. She is an international student who was born and raised in Singapore, attending an American international school for 12 years. Jie Xin has been part of NAIMUN since her freshman year of college, joining the Georgetown International Relations Association in the fall of 2022.
Outside of NAIMUN, Jie Xin was Deputy Director for the Advocacy and Service sub-board of the Georgetown International Relations Club, as well as the Director of Logistics for TEDxGeorgetown. In her free time, Jie Xin likes to read Dostoyevsky, watch movies, and sit by the ocean.
This will be Jie Xin’s third NAIMUN. As a freshman at Georgetown, she was part of the Logistics & Security staff team for NAIMUN LX. This experience allowed her to gain experience in both the in-committee and event management aspects of NAIMUN. It was because of this experience that she applied to the NAIMUN LXI Secretariat, serving as the Director of Logistics & Security. It was in this role that she further developed skills in managing the administrative side of NAIMUN, as well as gaining a deeper appreciation for NAIMUN’s core values of philanthropy and education.
Jie Xin is incredibly honored to serve as Executive Director of NAIMUN LXII. She hopes to curate a conference that not only allows delegates to develop their public speaking and problem-solving skills in committee, but to also gain knowledge through out-of-committee events such as programming and philanthropy. This year, she is beyond excited to welcome delegates from all over the world to the 62nd iteration of the conference at the Washington Hilton!
