Cristina Scotti has informed the Section Commissioner that she will be leaving the Section effective January 1, 2015, to take a position with UCLA Orthopaedics as the Senior Fund Manager. Cristina served as the Section Budget and Finance Manager for just over a year and six months, and was a tremendous support to the financial stability of the Section during the transition from an LAUSD entity to an independent non-profit organization.
The Section Commissioner, John Aguirre, identified Cristina as a true leader and bright star for the Section Office during her tenure with the Section. He added, "This will be a loss to the entire Section but we support her decision to advance her career and she will be missed by all. We thank her for all of her efforts to coordinate our financial and business model."
