Danielle Merket

DanielleHi, I’m Danielle.  I am a first-year MBA concentrating in Marketing.  I have lived all over the place, so I don’t really have a home town, but I most recently came from Salt Lake City, UT.

I did my undergrad at Cornell University in Hospitality Management (Go Hotelies!) and worked in the hospitality industry after graduation.  I then switched to do project management for the HR Consulting company O.C. Tanner where I implemented and managed performance-based recognition and incentive programs for organizations in the Northwest and Bay Area.  Through UNC’s Kenan-Flagler Business School, I’m hoping to use my extensive “people” experience to better understand consumers and the many facets of marketing. 

I love Chapel Hill and am enjoying exploring the surrounding areas with friends and my dog!
