Director
Audrey Pettibon is a junior at Seattle Academy, and is ecstatic to serve as the Director of Crisis-101! Since her first terrifying conference in freshman year, jumping in headfirst with only basic knowledge of ROP, Audrey has grown to love the atmosphere of fast-paced debate, diplomatic nature, and all the friendships formed along the way. While her MUN journey started in a Principal Committee, she has since been entranced by the interesting topics, fun twists, and overall chaos Crisis has to offer. When she’s not considering a unique format for a position paper or discovering a new adjective for a speech, Audrey can be found in the dance room, on the softball field, or listening to music (ask for her Spotify!). Audrey is extremely excited to meet all the delegates and hopes to contribute to a uniquely epic conference experience at EverMUN 2025!
Chair
Hima Gowda is a Sophomore at International Community School and is thrilled to serve as Chair of Crisis-101 for EverMUN 2025! Ever since attending her first MUN conference as an awestruck, unprepared middle schooler, the memories she has made has allowed her to fall in love with all things MUN. From the passionate debate, chaotic directives and the anticipation of crisis updates, Hima has become a crisis kid at heart! When she isn’t cramming for chemistry at ungodly hours of the morning, she can be found reading books, calling her friends, or playing Taylor Swift on repeat. Hima is delighted to meet the delegates and cannot wait to find the future generation of Crisis kids!
Assistant Director
Betina Gudis is a Junior at Eastlake High School and is so excited to serve as Assistant Director of Crisis-101 at EverMUN! She remembers her first conference as if it were yesterday. Although deeply confused and a little anxious she will never forget the amazing memories and friends she made throughout her MUN adventures. Whether it’s being a pirate, or a senator from the 1900s, her love for MUN conferences will never stop growing. When she isn’t stressing over physics you can find her getting a pumpkin spice latte at starbucks, ordering jack in the box curly seasoned fries, or playing cooking fever on her ipad! Betina is absolutely stoked to meet all EverMun delegates and provide an enjoyable experience for everyone.
