The change may have been precipitated by personnel change in the office: Mark Gini was appointed the Ombuds in January 2021; and Christina Nguyen became the Ombuds Coordinator in October 2021.
Gini has worked at CalSTRS for the past 15 years, most recently as an Assistant Director of the Service Retirement Division. He graduated from California State University-Sacramento. Nguyen also moved from another position at CalSTRS: a Program Analyst. Prior to that, she worked in the California State Controller's Office for eight years. She earned her BA at UC Davis.
