Hard Rock International has announced the appointment of a new senior vice president of global sales and marketing for the fast-growing Hard Rock Hotels and Casinos brand.

The company has named Danielle Babilino to the role, in which she will have overall responsibility for the Hard Rock Hotel sales division, supporting the expanding global portfolio for the brand.

“An aggressive, results-focused sales division is critical to the future success of the expanding Hard Rock brand, especially as we continue to add hotels and casinos throughout the United States and around the world, ” said John Lucas, COO of Hard Rock International. “We are confident Danielle Babilino will drive Hard Rock sales beyond our greatest goals.”

Hard Rock has a growing presence in the Caribbean region, including a much-anticipated project in Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic.

Babilino was most recently the executive vice president of sales and marketing for Alon Las Vegas, after having served from 2008 to 2015 as senior vice president of sales for Wynn and Encore Las Vegas.
