Julia Bittencourt, Co-President

From her traveling experience with the team and involvement in MUNE as a co-chair of the Chile 1973 committee in MUNE IV, Director of Publicity for MUNE V, and Undersecretary General for MUNE VI, Julia has become truly passionate about the Model UN aspect of EIRA. As for the future she's really focused on growing EIRA to expand to all groups within the Emory student body while maintaining the close knit community that we’ve created within the organization.
