Helen possesses a unique disposition that enables her to calmly and capably lead and drive progress, whether in urgent situations or during more normal times. Helen has had a stellar career at the New York Fed, and I wish her all the best in her retirement.”
“It has been an honor and a privilege to work alongside teams of dedicated individuals in support of the Bank’s mission,” said Mucciolo. “The New York Fed and the Federal Reserve System have allowed me to build a uniquely rewarding career. Along the way, I’ve been honored to support and develop the next generation of central bankers. I hope these efforts have helped prepare the organization for the future.”As head of the Corporate Group, Mucciolo oversees the financial management, procurement, real estate and other general support functions of the New York Fed. From November 2020 through mid-March 2021 as well as from July 2022 through February 2023, she also held the role of acting first vice president and chief operating officer, serving as an alternate voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee.
