Groob had taken over for Kate Childs Graham, who announced her departure in February.
And these weren’t transient Harris helpers, either.
Kosoglu’s work under Harris dates back nearly six years ago to her time in the Senate. She would serve on Harris’ presidential campaign followed by a job on the transition team before moving to the vice president’s office. Kosoglu said she is resigning so she can spend more time with her family.
