I love our guests, continuing to work with media, executing special events and working with so many organizations in the community. I realized very soon after starting with the company that I was cut out for casino life. Share a time that made you realize you love your job. I enjoy working for Caesars Entertainment. We are celebrated for our dedication and service praised and rewarded throughout the year. I don’t know all 1,400 employees by name but I bet I do know about 900 of them. Team members are the very heartbeat of the Caesars Entertainment offering in Bossier City. I have felt like part of the family since Day 1. What does Horseshoe/Caesars do for its staff that makes them feel special/appreciated? We are currently working on a Caesars Foundation grant pay-out to the Bossier Council On Aging for $20,000 for an exercise room with new equipment. Breathing life into those projects and gifts is very rewarding. I love that we give back! There are so many non-profit organizations and groups that have been helped by Horseshoe, Harrah’s and Caesars Entertainment.

We take our commitment to the community very seriously. What is your favorite part about working at Horseshoe? I also handle all corporate social responsibility efforts for the properties, employee engagement and volunteerism in the community. I am the Advertising, Public Relations and Sponsorships Manager for both properties.

How did you get involved with Horseshoe and what do you do there? The industry found me! I wasn’t looking to find a position outside of television but after a high heel mishap during a live shot, borrowed shoes and conversation about an open position, I submitted a resume and here we are nine years later. I worked in television news for nine years as a reporter and morning anchor before taking a position with Horseshoe Casino and Harrah’s Louisiana Downs. Why did you want to be in the gaming/hospitality industry? Let’s find out more about Shelli and what she loves about her career.
