ADRIAN J. LAM

Adrian is studying political science and biochemistry at the University of Toronto. Their journey in Model United Nations began with a fascination for diplomacy and global affairs, which led then to participate in and now help organize events like UTMUN. This summer, they'll be focusing on logistics for UTMUN and working on exciting projects with the University of Toronto STEM Research Initiative (UTSRI), which they co-founded to connect students with research opportunities. A recent accomplishment they are proud of is co-chairing Trinity's Winter Ball at the AGO. For the 2025-2026 school year, they are eager to engage in meaningful discussions and projects that bridge academia and real-world issues.
daisy zhao
UNDER-SECRETARY-GENERAL OF academics | she/her
Daisy has been involved with Model UN for the past six years, with UTMUN being one of her first conference experiences. From the very beginning, Model UN captivated her. GA and ECOSOC committees introduced her to global issues in ways she had never considered, equipping her with research, writing, and public speaking skills that continue to shape her today. Meanwhile, specialized and crisis committees became portals to worlds where creativity knew no bounds, an experience she hopes to share with delegates at UTMUN. Outside of MUN, you can find Daisy at the Hart House gym or exploring UTM, where she’s spending the summer as a research assistant. An avid web novel and manga enthusiast, she hopes to make her way through her ever-growing, multi-tabbed reading list/spreadsheet, go on a road trip to Quebec City, and try making every TikTok food trend, starting with the Dubai chocolate strawberry cup.
PRANAV CHATURVEDI
UNDER-SECRETARY-GENERAL OF FINANCE | he/hIM
Pranav is a third-year at UofT, studying Economics, Data Analytics, and Politics, and will be serving as this year’s USG Finance – with six years of Model UN experience under his belt, across both the U.S. and Canada, and having served as a General Assemblies Moderator and Branch Director through UTMUN in the past. UTMUN’s academics branch will forever hold a special place in his heart due to how much he’s been able to grow professionally and socially because of the organization – but he couldn’t be more excited to take on UTMUN’s exquisite financial portfolio. In his spare time you’ll find him rewatching his childhood classic TV show, Drake and Josh, yapping with his friends, with tea and biscuits – or making a trek to the Canada-US border solely for the purpose of paying Trader Joes a visit. He’s stoked for another goated UTMUN conference on the horizon – #Onelove$MUNeylove.
