GCC names VP of administrative services

Erpelding’s role moves from interim to permanent

Posted

Glendale Community College, 6000 W. Olive Ave., has appointed Augustine (Auggi) Erpelding as vice president of administrative services.

In this senior leadership position Ms. Erpelding will support the success of the college by providing strategic direction and executive management for five departments: Business Services, Human Resources, Facilities, Office of Information Technology and Campus Police.

She has been serving in an interim capacity in this role since 2018. Previous to her position she was the GCC associate dean of business services, and prior to that the GCC manager of fiscal services.

“Auggi is excellent at what she does and she brings a deep knowledge of the complex operational and budgetary issues required for the smooth running of a campus that serves tens of thousand of students and nearly a thousand employees,” Glendale Community College president Teresa Leyba-Ruiz stated in a news release. “She works tirelessly to support our students, staff and faculty while balancing the needs of IT, maintenance and tight fiscal management.”

Ms. Erpelding has more than 20 years of successful higher education experience. Prior to joining Glendale Community College, she worked at Paradise Valley Community College in various business services roles.

Her career also includes experience in the construction industry as an estimator and project manager. She earned her associates degrees from Paradise Valley Community College, her Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies at Northern Arizona University and her Master of Education in Educational Leadership from Northern Arizona University.

“I am truly humbled and proud to be selected as the vice president of administrative services,” she stated. “It is a unique role that allows me to apply my fiscal and operational skills to serve the vibrant GCC community. I love GCC and can’t imagine being anywhere else.”
