RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — Governor Roy Cooper announces Julia White as the Chief of Staff to succeed Kristi Jones. Jones will leave the Governor’s Office in mid-August to seek a private sector opportunity.

Jones has been serving in the role of Chief of Staff since Gov. Cooper took office in 2017.

“For almost three decades, Kristi Jones has served our state with distinction and extraordinary skill,” said Governor Cooper. “I’m grateful for Kristi’s leadership and deeply appreciate Julia White stepping into the role of Chief of Staff. Julia has significant experience in state government as well as being one of my closest advisors for more than 25 years and I’m confident we will continue our progress under her leadership.”

White currently serves as Senior Advisor to the Governor, and previously served as Deputy Chief of Staff in the Governor’s Office. She grew up in Mebane and is a graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill.
