Running For: Nominating Committee


Campaign Statement

My name is Catherine Sanso and I graduated with my civil engineering degree in 2014. I currently work full-time at Thornton Tomasetti and will be completing my master’s degree at Cooper by the end of the year. I am honored to be nominated to work with the CUAA. Over the last two years, I have attended several CUAA meetings and have personally witnessed the integral function the CUAA performs as it links the current students, alumni, faculty, and institutional goals. If elected, I plan to work with similarly dedicated alumni to serve the Cooper Union community. I am beyond grateful for the opportunities Cooper has provided to me over the years and by serving as a member of the CUAA, I hope to be able to return even a fraction of these opportunities for others.
