On April 4th, Cornell MFE alumni from several graduating years reunited at The Sling Bar & Lounge at Urban Hawker in midtown Manhattan. It was a celebratory occasion with representation from professional backgrounds spanning finance, technology, and more!
Over 50 guests discussed their latest milestones with drinks and hors d’oeuvres. A few current students also joined the party as their peers freely shared professional and life advice.
CFEM Associate Director Ayumi Sakamoto, who joined us in 2021, was a new face to many of our alumni who met her in-person for the first time. CFEM Director Victoria Averbukh briefly addressed the crowd to express gratitude for their continued support. Our alumni remain committed to the program and are a big part of why we have maintained excellence over the years.
This was another reunion for the books! We are excited for upcoming gatherings scheduled in September and October on the Cornell Tech campus!
