Natasha Cupidore
FOUNDER
Natasha Cupidore, founder of Steel Pan Welding, LLC, was inspired by her late father, Urban Cupidore, a Trinidadian-American welder who spent over 25 years advocating for fairness in the construction industry. Witnessing the challenges faced by minority tradespeople, particularly Caribbean workers, shaped her commitment to creating change.
Natasha’s husband, a Trinidadian welder, reignited her passion to address inequities in the field. As a nurse practitioner dedicated to advocacy, she founded Steel Pan Welding to provide a supportive space where minority welders are valued and empowered.
Steel Pan Welding is Natasha’s tribute to her father’s legacy and her belief in the unmatched talent of Caribbean welders.
