The headline of this story was corrected to reflect that Brent Goldberg is a new vice chancellor for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
To look at Brent Goldberg’s resume, one might think the guy has to be exhausted.
The Chattanooga native launched his career almost 20 years ago with posts at accounting firms in Nashville and the Washington, D.C. area. Since his return to Chattanooga in 2006, he’s worked for another accounting firm, major trucking and logistics firms, the Public Education Foundation, the Hamilton County Department of Education and two city mayors — Tim Kelly and his predecessor, Andy Berke.
But Goldberg, who took over Dec. 1 as vice chancellor for finance and administration at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, says he’s in for the long haul at his alma mater.
“I want to retire from UTC,” says Goldberg, who earned undergraduate and graduate degrees in accounting from the school. “All my experiences have prepared me to do as well as I possibly can in this position.”
