The name Shitrai in Hebrew letters is שטרי. Below: how its number adds up, which page of the Torah it falls on and what verse stands there. Everything is computed, nothing is guessed.
שטרי
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is שטרי. A Tanakh name: an Israelite (first in 1 Chronicles 27:29; 2 mentions in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “magisterial”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 519 — the same as the Torah word גשורי, “Geshurite”. That number points to Torah page 165 of 354 — in the portion Pekudei. What that portion is about: The accounting of the materials; the priestly garments are finished; the Tabernacle is raised on the first of Nisan; the cloud covers it. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Exodus 12:15. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Shitrai” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: שטרי. A name from the Tanakh — its Tanakh spelling is used. If your name is spelled differently, correct the Hebrew spelling and the report is recomputed.

Other ways of counting
The tradition counts the same name in several ways. The main one is above: each letter is its number. The other eight are old and checkable too; each gives its own number, and many of them have a Torah word with the same number.
Final letters as 500–900 (mispar gadol) — 519. A Torah word with the same number is גשורי — “Geshurite” (Deuteronomy 3:14).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 15. A Torah word with the same number is זוב — “to flow” (Exodus 3:8).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 60. A Torah word with the same number is ילך — “he will go” (Genesis 3:14).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1990.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 130181.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1637.
The letters that come out are בנגמ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 95. A Torah word with the same number is יפה — “beautiful” (Genesis 12:11).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1309.
The number 519 appears in the classical books 6 times across 4 works. The earliest mention is שם הגדולים (קרענגיל) (~1774).

The verse of your name
There is a custom: at the end of the prayer one says a Torah verse that begins with the first letter of one's name and ends with its last. For שטרי these are ש and י. The Pentateuch has 2 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 12:15:
שבעת ימים מצות תאכלו אך ביום הראשון תשביתו שאר מבתיכם כי כל אכל חמץ ונכרתה הנפש ההוא מישראל מיום הראשן עד יום השבעי
This is from the portion Bo. What it is about: Locusts, darkness and the death of the firstborn; the Passover lamb; the exodus from Egypt; the commandment of tefillin.
