Dear Delegates, 

Welcome! My name is Annie Zhang, and I’m thrilled to be your Crisis Director of Art of the Deal at UPMUNC 56. Jack and I look forward to meeting you all and facilitating a dynamic and fun weekend for you!

A little bit about myself: I was born and raised right outside of Philadelphia, now within the heart of the city at Penn. At Penn, I am a senior concentrating in International Relations and Economics.

For the past two years I have served first as an Assistant-Secretary General in UPMUNC 54, and then as a Business Director at UPMUNC 55. As for my favorite hobbies outside of college, I love spending way too much money on trying new restaurants around Philadelphia and traveling.

As for this committee, it is structured a little differently than others in the conference. We will have a new topic for each day of the committee, and the second and third days will feel much like an Ad-Hoc committee:  character assignments and scenarios provided just before the start of each day’s session. We hope that this is a fun and memorable experience for you all, and cannot wait to see the creative and insane plans you all come up with.

Once again, welcome to UPMUNC 56 and Art of the Deal!

Best,

Annie Zhang

Crisis Director, Art of the Deal
