Timothy Bowman

Timothy (TJ) Bowman is the president chair for the VALMUN Human Rights Committee. TJ is a 16 year-old who was born in San Jose, California and lived there for 9 years. In 2016, he moved to Valencia, Spain to embark on a new adventure while still holding on to a piece of home through his American peers at the American School of Valencia. TJ joined MUN in 7th grade because of his desire to meet diversified crowds of people while discussing the most modern and interesting issues that the world is struggling with. He has been involved in VALMUN and other MUN activities since 2019, and has accumulated a total of 6 MUN experiences since then. These experiences have opened his eyes to the benefits of trying new things and allowed him to develop social and speaking skills that have become much more familiar through attending these conferences. MUN has provided TJ with a set of memories that go way beyond the conference room, including the acquisition of new friends and gaining a new sense of community.

Attending 6 national and international MUN conferences has given Lucia the opportunity to meet incredible groups of people, and it has helped her reflect on  the importance of solving worldwide issues with teamwork.
