"The servant-leader is servant first... It begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead." - Robert K. Greenleaf  

With her commitment to quality work and desire to put forth a full effort, Cassandra Mirarchi is the perfect choice when looking for a job to be done right. She is a highly observant individual, noticing the crucial details that others will often overlook.

The Buccino Leadership Institute and the University Honors Program were the driving forces behind Cassandra's decision to attend Seton Hall. She felt that these programs would provide a challenging academic experience and inspire both personal and professional growth.

Cassandra also enjoys meeting new people and has utilized this strength within the leadership program to conduct interviews for incoming freshmen hopeful to join the Institute. This opportunity to help the Institute and engage with new students has been extremely fulfilling for Cassandra, and she is always striving to find new ways of giving back.
