Harrison Kobb

Senior Director, Major Gifts

Harrison began his career at Columbia University, where he spent 10 years in development roles. He started as a Development Assistant for the University's Major Gifts team before becoming an annual fund officer at the Columbia College Fund and ultimately landed at Columbia Law School where he spent 6 years supporting the School's major gifts and global initiatives.

While working at Columbia, Harrison received a Master of Public Administration from Columbia’s School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA) in 2015. 

Following his time at Columbia, Harrison spent nearly seven years in enterprise account management and strategic sales at Wealth-X/Altrata, helping higher education and healthcare organizations drive growth by leveraging the company's data and technology to achieve their goals. 

Harrison is excited to return to Columbia and bring together his experience in fundraising, relationship management, and strategic growth to support Columbia Engineering’s philanthropic priorities to contribute to the team's continued fundraising success.
