Nappier’s Chief Investment Officer Departs After Two Weeks.

State Treasurer Denise Nappier’s office sustains it’s reputation as one of the most difficult places to work in state government. After a prolonged search, New Yorker Sean Crawford was hired to begin as the office’s chief investment officer in mid-May. By the time the moth ended this week, Crawford was gone.

Nappier told Daily Ructions in a written statement,  “This is an unfortunate situation.  Going forward, I wish Sean the very best in his future plans.” She declined to comment on the circumstances Crawford’s departure.

Laurie Martin, who served as interim investment chief during the search, has been appointed to follow Crawford.

Expect tales of life in Nappier’s office to flow more freely as her 20-year tenure draws to a close in January.
