“Tiffany has found volunteering with ACUA to be such a rewarding experience.  One of her favorite things is getting to meet other ACUA members in person at AuditCon after connecting virtually throughout the year.”

Professional Background
Tiffany Yordan, CIA, is a Principal Auditor in Audit and Advisory Services at Rutgers University, where she has worked since 2024.  Previously, she spent 16 years in the Office of Audit and Compliance at Princeton University.  She holds a bachelor’s degree in international studies from American University and an MBA from the University of Maine.

Tiffany has volunteered with the data analytics subcommittee since its inception in 2019 (when it was not even a committee yet, just a group of people who got together to write a kick-starter on data analytics).  She has enjoyed seeing it grow and evolve into a standing subcommittee and for the last four years, she has served as the director.  As part of the Best Practices Committee, the subcommittee’s goal is to support ACUA members by providing resources, tools, and insights to enhance the use of data analytics.  Tiffany has really enjoyed her time on the committee and getting to know so many amazing ACUA volunteers.  Through the subcommittee, she has been able to author and contribute to various kick-starters and organize webinars and roundtables.
