Andrew Cuomo's communication director resigns

What he's saying: "After nearly four years, and with this year's budget done and vaccine eligibility open to everyone, I decided now is the time to pursue opportunities in the private sector," Ajemian said, per Spectrum News.

• "I’m grateful to the governor for giving me the chance to serve. It's been the honor of a lifetime to be part of a team working for New Yorkers in a period of unprecedented crisis and seeing the government work for the people and people work for each other," Ajemian added.

What's next: Ajemian's last day was on Friday and he will be replaced by Rich Azzopardi, who was Cuomo's senior advisor.
