Jamie Simpson
Under-Secretary-General
Class of 2027 | she/her
Jamie moved to Boston in the fall of 2023 for her first year at Boston University to major in Environmental Analysis and Policy with a minor in French - she had no idea that attending her first BUIAA meeting would lead to her active involvement in BarMUN. Having staffed BarMUN XVI, she knew she wanted to be behind the scenes for BarMUN XVII, and now serves as Under-Secretary-General. She recalls her experience in organizational roles in Model UN in high school, having planned and executed three international conferences, trained over 350 delegates in parliamentary procedure, and just once performed on cowbell for a conference’s opening ceremony in 2021. Academics aside, Jamie is passionate about music (both listening and making it) and has playlists for every mood and situation - she’s even working on one for when committee is running. Jamie can’t wait for BarMUN XVII and looks forward to serving as one of this year’s Under-Secretary-General!
