New leadership appointments in Administrative Services
by Beverly Shuford, Vice Chancellor for Administrative Services |
Dear UAA Community,
I am pleased to announce new leadership appointments in Administrative Services.
Brian deZeeuw has been named Director of Financial Services. He has over 23 years of service at UAA, and brings expertise to this role, serving as interim Director of Financial Services since November 2018. Brian's role includes oversight of UAA Accounting Services (Student Accounts and Refunds, Cashiering, Collections, and Payment Plan and Student Account Center), Accounts Payable/Travel, Banner Finance Training, and the WOLFcard office.
Kelly Thorngren, Budget Director has announced her upcoming retirement on April 30. With 23 years at UAA, she has provided leadership for our UAA budget through many changes. Ryan Buchholdt, currently the Facilities and Campus Services Deputy Director/Chief of Staff, has accepted the Interim Budget Director position and will begin working with Kelly for the transition.
Please join me in welcoming Brian and Ryan to their new positions and our gratitude to Kelly for her expertise and optimistic approach to the challenging budget environment of UAA.
Sincerely,
Beverly C. Shuford, Ph.D., C.P.A.
Vice Chancellor for Administrative Services
