Theodora Lyne

secretary-General

  • Theodora Lyne (she/her) is a member of the class of 2027 in the College of Arts and Sciences, majoring in Government and minoring in Italian and Science, Technology, and International Relations. She is from New York City, where she started doing Model UN in seventh grade, and continued competing for all of high school. Furthering youth global awareness and diplomatic skills has been a major passion of Theodora’s since high school, when she led her Model UN team, and taught elementary students at Debate Camp. At Georgetown, she has staffed NCSC, NAIMUN, and DistrictMUN, and served on the secretariat of NAIMUN LXII as the Under-Secretary-General of Contemporary Crisis. On campus outside of the Georgetown International Relations Association, Theodora is a member of the Philodemic Debate Society, tables for an advocacy group, is an Orientation Advisor, and does election reporting. In her free time, she likes to take long walks along the Potomac, pretend to get work done in the library with her friends, and rewatch her favorite political TV shows. She is so excited to serve as DistrictMUN VI’s Secretary-General, and can’t wait to meet all the delegates in the spring!

Caroline Sippel

Chief of Staff

  • Caroline Sippel is a member of the Walsh School of Foreign Service class of 2027, with a major of Culture and Politics and minors in Public Health and (hopefully, if her credits work out) Art History. She is originally from St. Louis, Missouri, but currently lives in Reston, Virginia. She has served as the Under-Secretary-General of Historical Crisis for NAIMUN LXII, Georgetown’s conference for high school students, as well as a staffer for NAIMUN LXI, and NCSC LXI, NCSC LXII, and NCSC LXIII, the conference for college students. Caroline began Model UN in her freshman year of high school and never looked back, especially in regards to historical crisis committees. However, competing was never really her style: education and community always backed her love of the extracurricular, driving her to join GIRA Local during her sophomore year as a Crisis Manager for DistrictMUN V.  Besides Model UN,  Caroline is also on the board of Georgetown’s chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta, a host on Georgetown's radio station, a cast member of Georgetown’s Rocky Horror Picture Show, and a lifeguard for the on-campus pool. Her greatest passions are caffeinated beverages, rock music, and her dog. Seeing the ways in which Model UN and international relations can impact students of all ages drives Caroline to continue pursuing her passions, and she hopes this drive is shown to all of those involved in the program.
