Sharon Farina has joined the Travel & Expense team in Procurement and Supplier Diversity Services as a Travel and Expense Analyst, a role which, given her background in data analysis and her penchant for travel, seems to be a perfect choice.
Farina has worked in a temporary capacity in Travel and Expense and Accounts Payable since January of 2016. In her current role, she puts her problem solving and trend analysis skills to work in developing reports for audit purposes and identifying opportunities for improvement within the Travel & Expense program.
Farina’s work background involves analyst positions at both Bank of America and New Century Mortgage.
She has an MBA from Case Western Reserve University (in a joint program with Central European University) and her studies were completed in Budapest, Hungary – and that’s not even the furthest reach of her travel. Originally she is from Chicago, but she has lived on both coasts and in Texas, and has traveled extensively around Europe.
In addition to traveling, Farina enjoys reading and learning more about technology. She has found the environment around Charlottesville to be a perfect setting for another of her pursuits, photography.
UVAFinance is wrapping up a few remaining details with our consulting partner for the Assessment and Planning Phase of Finance Strategic Transformation. We expect the consultants to be on Grounds very soon and that meetings with stakeholders will begin in August.
