Name: Danielle Deremo (@SuperDaniYell)
Position: Social Media Specialist
Employer: Mirage Resort and Casino (MGM Resorts), Las Vegas, Nevada
Education: Hospitality Administration, Northern Illinois University
Professional role model:

She introduced me to social media from a brand’s perspective and taught me the rules of the road when it comes to representing a business in the Web 2.0 arena.
