USG Branding

Laiba is a first-year student at Yale University, majoring in Data Science on a Pre-Dental track. After two years of high school debate, she decided to branch out into Model UN and is thrilled to be competing for the first time this year as a member of MUNTY.

Outside of Model UN, Laiba is a dedicated volunteer for CodeHaven, where she works with New Haven fifth graders to teach programming fundamentals in Scratch and Python. She also serves as an intern at EducateUS, where she advocates for menstrual health education and equity, an issue she’s deeply passionate about.

When she’s not coding or preparing for conferences, you can find Laiba trying new outdoor sports like canoeing and adventure parks, exploring local matcha spots with her friends, or rewatching her favorite comfort shows and movies (she’ll never say no to New Girl, How I Met Your Mother, or Mamma Mia!).
