Christina Pucci

Christina Pucci was recently appointed as Business Manager of the Edward P. Fitts Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, bringing her expertise in financial management, operations and personnel management.

Christina joined the ISE department in 2017 and has held several roles.  Previously, she served as the Accounting Technician for the department, which had a wide range of purchasing, accounting, and travel responsibilities in support of the faculty, staff, and students of the department.  These requisite skills provided her with an excellent background for her new role as Business Manager. In her new role, Christina will manage and oversee the operations and financial activities of the ISE department affiliated with the centers and graduate programs.

Prior to joining NC State, she left the corporate sector after 21 years and relocated from New York to North Carolina to enjoy the sunny skies. The pivot from the private sector to the public has given her a higher sense of fulfillment in contributing to the growth and development of students and building meaningful, long-term relationships.

Christina has a passion for interior decorating and loves helping family and friends transform their spaces. But most of all, she loves spending time with her family and traveling.
