Emilee Jones

Emilee Jones (she/her) is a third year International Studies and Economics major from a small town in Vermont. She has been doing Model UN since seventh grade primarily competing on the northern circuit. After falling in love with policy writing and debate, she continued MUN when she arrived at UF. Outside of MUN, Emilee is a member of the Omega Phi Alpha service sorority, Phi Alpha Delta pre-law fraternity, and the Gator Salsa club.

She is very excited to be the first Secretary-General to move SunMun to Orlando after over a decade of the club hosting its collegiate conference in its hometown of Gainesville. Other barriers being broken are the conference’s first Spanish-speaking committee, a predominantly female secretariat, and a renewed focus on philanthropy and community outreach.
