Valley Christian alumnus Lorenzo Romero ’00 was appointed by Governor Doug Ducey as Director of the Governor’s Office of Strategic Planning & Budgeting (OSPB) Monday.
Mr. Romero joined the Governor’s administration in January, serving as special adviser to the governor for tax, business, and regulatory policy.
“Lorenzo has been a crucial member of our team from the beginning,” said Governor Ducey. “His expertise in tax, fiscal and business policy was instrumental in our successful legislative session. I’m thrilled to announce he’ll be leading my budget office, and I’m confident his experience and insight will be immensely valuable as we continue our work to make responsible budgetary choices and improve the long-term health of our economy.
After graduating from Valley Christian in 2000, Romero received a bachelor’s degree in accounting and finance, and a master’s degree in accounting from Arizona State University’s W.P. Carey School of Business. He currently is an MBA candidate at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.
