CAIT DAVISON (she/her)
Cait Davison is Hack.Diversity’s Boston Associate Director, leading the Boston site in all things Fellow and Partner focused, ensuring that respective stakeholders achieve mutual success throughout the nine-month program cycle.
Cait's professional journey spans from law to holistic medicine, to international education, to the nonprofit sector. Her nonlinear path across various industries has consistently highlighted a fundamental truth: talent knows no boundaries, yet opportunity often remains exclusive to the privileged. This recurring observation fuels her strong commitment to advancing social and racial justice. Prior to joining Hack.Diversity, Cait worked for three years at Year Up, a national organization dedicated to empowering young adults from underserved communities by providing them with skills, experience, and support to jumpstart their careers. She is constantly inspired in this work by Hack.Fellows, colleagues, and partners, and strives daily to live out Angela Davis' declaration of changing the things she simply cannot accept.
Born and raised in RI, Cait went to college in Boston but in an equally nonlinear fashion, lived on the West Coast and Southeast Asia before returning to NE and planting roots in Winthrop. In her personal life, Cait loves to get outdoors as much as possible – usually accompanied by her dog or her rollerblades (but NEVER both at the same time) and enjoys reading, traveling, adding to her vinyl records collection, and playing board games at every available opportunity.
