CHAIR

Allie Liu is majoring in Business and Global Affairs with a minor in Public Health in Georgetown’s Class of 2028 at Georgetown University. A Maryland native, Allie has been competing in Model UN since high school. This is Allie’s second year staffing NCSC, but she has also been involved in Georgetown’s Model UN Team and is currently a member of NAIMUN Secretariat. 

Outside of Model UN, Allie is also a Project Manager for Hoyalytics, a data consulting club, does research for a lung health lab, and serves as the co-president of Georgetown’s Students Demand Action chapter. When she makes it off campus, she can be found assembling charcuterie boards, exploring new restaurants to rank on Beli, attempting to thrift, or scrapbooking.

Allie is excited to chair this committee, where her academic interests in global development, trade, and financing are especially relevant. She is curious to see what kind of creative solutions delegates can come up with to address both the more prominent financial and economic components of the issue, while also keeping in mind the more nuanced dynamics of international economics.

CO-CHAIR

Sam Schwartz is a part of the class of 2028 in the College of Arts and Sciences at Georgetown University. He is studying Justice and Peace Studies and Film with a minor in Hebrew, which means any financial concepts he knows he likely learned preparing for this committee. Hailing from just outside the greatest city in America, Boston, Sam grew up in Arlington, Massachusetts where he competed with his school’s Model UN team for all four years of high school.  This will actually be Sam’s first NCSC, but he has been heavily involved with Model UN on Georgetown’s campus. This past year he served on the secretariat of Georgetown’s high school Model UN conference, NAIMUN. He has a deep love for NAIMUN but is very excited to work with delegates who aren’t pre-teens. Outside of NCSC, Sam is a member of the Georgetown Run Club and the Georgetown Radio. His freshman year he hosted a show called “Making Soundwaves” which explored a new social or political theme in music each week. He is also a part of Georgetown Sketch Comedy where he writes and performs in monthly sketch comedy shows. Outside of school, you can probably find Sam running to the monuments, thrifting, drawing, or hiking. No matter what he’s doing, he’ll probably be listening to music at a volume not recommended by doctors or anyone who knows anything about ear health. Sam is thrilled to serve as one of the Chairs of the Monterrey Conference for NCSC LIV. He hopes the committee will allow delegates to tackle both the technical financial elements of the topic while also addressing the larger socio-political implications at play…and most importantly have fun!
