Cait Conley

Working Class Roots in the Hudson Valley

Cait Conley is a proud fourth-generation Hudson Valley native from working class roots who understands the values of hard work and public service. Cait’s mom, born in Peekskill, has been a postal worker for 48 years serving communities all over the Hudson Valley. Her dad, born and raised in Hopewell Junction, was a construction worker, and her grandfather and great-grandfather worked in the Montrose brickyard.

Cait was a junior at Pine Bush High School on 9/11 when she watched the Twin Towers fall. In that moment she felt her calling to serve. The next day, she started the application for the United States Military Academy at West Point, earning a congressional nomination from Congressman Maurice Hinchey and eventually graduating in the top 2% of her class. Cait was the first in her family to graduate from college and went on to earn master’s degrees from MIT and Harvard.
