Samson Cassel-Nucci
Project Manager & Managing Partner
Samson has 10 years of experience in the hospitality industry, spanning operations, sales, marketing, and project management roles. After graduating from the University of Pittsburgh in 2018 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Business Administration in Supply Chain Management, Samson went to work for a Pittsburgh-based Marriott franchise. After cutting his teeth working in operations for the hotel, including guest services, housekeeping, and F&B operations, Samson rose to the position of project
coordinator and assisted in opening two more hotels and coordinating the renovation of a third. Post-pandemic, Samson pivoted to the short-term rental space, where he worked for both Mint House and Casual Nomad opening short-term rental units across the country. He joined Ascension Associates in 2023, and has completed 6 hotel renovations and modernization projects in 4 states, with more on the way.
