Alexa Lauryn is a graduate of the University of California, Los Angeles, with a degree in Human Biology & Society, B.S., and a current Master’s student pursuing graduate studies in Public Health at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, striving to explore her passions in Bioethics. She previously attended Island School on the small, yet beautiful, island of Kauaʻi, in Hawaiʻi, on which she was born and raised. Alexa participated in Model United Nations throughout all four years of high school as a PacMUN delegate (with one year at NHSMUN), and has continued to serve as a PacMUN Chair throughout all four years of university. In addition to chairing PacMUN, she has also served as a Chair for UCLA’s high school and collegiate conferences, BruinMUN and LAMUN.

Entering her sixth year staffing PacMUN and tenth year participating overall, Alexa is incredibly excited to return and give back to the conference that has provided her with countless opportunities and experiences. Outside of Model United Nations, Alexa enjoys traveling and exploring different cities and cultures, keeping up with current events, discussing the Beatles at length, and visiting friends and family in and around Shanghai.
