	JERRY CHEN SECRETARY-GENERAL
	Hometown:	Plainsboro, NJ
	Major:	Environmental Sciences and Policy, Political Science
	Hey! I am excited to be your Secretary-General for DUMUNC XXVII! I am a senior double majoring in environmental sciences and policy and political science with a minor in classical civilization. Duke Model UN has been a large part of my life for the last four years and I enjoy every aspect of hosting and competing in conferences. This past summer, I worked for a non-profit environmental law firm in Chapel Hill. In my spare time, I enjoy playing and watching basketball and tennis, and crushing my colleagues at RISK. I look forward to DUMUNC XXVII, and if you see me around in February, please don't hesitate to say hi! Email: jerry.chen@duke.edu

	ANDREY FRADKIN DIRECTOR-GENERAL
	Hometown:	Fair Lawn, NJ
	Major:	Economics, Mathematics
	Hey! I have been doing Model UN since my sophomore year of high school. At Duke, I have worked hard to improve the conference every year. I believe that this year's conference will be the best Model UN conference Duke has ever had. I have spent the past two summers doing research in business economics. My academic interests lie primarily at the intersection of politics and the economics. Outside of school I enjoy playing basketball, philosophizing, and watching Lost. I look forward to a great conference. Email: andrey.fradkin@duke.edu

I'm also a tour guide and am part of the orientation student leadership. This past summer, I studied abroad in Paris and worked for the John Edwards campaign.

	Hey everyone! I'm a sophomore at Duke, and I’m thrilled to be your Deputy Chief of Staff for DUMUNC XXVII! I’ve lived all my life in India, though I went to high school in the United Kingdom. I’ve been participating in MUN since sophmore year of high school, and have represented various countries in conferences in India, Europe, and the U.S. Outside of Model UN and school (which leaves me with very little time), I enjoy reading, swimming and most of all, playing and watching cricket.

I look forward to a great conference year, and I hope to see you there! Email: anant.agarwalla@duke.edu
