Hi! My name is Chelsea and I am a junior at Cal studying Civil Engineering! I’m originally from Orange County (aka best place in the world) and I have been in MUN for 7 years now! At Cal, I am super busy (like seriously all the time) with BMUN, Engineers Without Borders (EWB), and my sorority. In my free time, I enjoy watching Grey’s Anatomy, taking long walks on the beach while contemplating the expansiveness of the universe, and drinking chai lattes (with soy milk and two shots of espresso, in case you want to bring me one ;) ). Also, I love all things to do with dogs (including petting dogs and doggo/pupper/woofer/floofer lingo) along with cats. I am so looking forward to conference, and I can’t wait to hear the excellent solutions that you come up with!!! Pls enjoy these various pics of me from all walks of life.

Education: Students attending school 90% of the time for the Australian population is 79.3%, while for the indigenous population it is 49%.
