Rodeo Queen Contestant

DaniElle Russo

Local resident, DaniElle Russo, will be running for the 2019 Ms. Rodeo Nevada Queen on March 8 through 10th at the South Point Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

DaniElle received her first Queening/Princess title in 2009 at 12 years old when she was crowned the Clark County Rodeo Princess.  Other titles held were the 2015 Clark County Rodeo Queen, the 2016 1st attendant Great American Stampede Queen in Utah, and the 2017 Heldorado Queen in Las Vegas.

DaniElle is 22 years old and is currently a full time student in the Veterinarian Technician Program at the College of Southern Nevada in Las Vegas and will be graduating in May 2019.  After graduation, she’ll continue her education studying Equestrian Science with the ultimate dream to open the first Equine Rehabilitation Center in Southern Nevada.  DaniElle has grown up riding horses and started training horses at a young age as well.

DaniElles philosophy is rodeo queening not only requires coordination, athleticism, and elegance, it’s also combined with a lot of passion and dedication to promote the rodeo lifestyle and provide a positive example for the younger generation.

The Miss Rodeo Nevada Pageant’s events include: Horsemanship, Interview, Impromptu questions, Impromptu speech and Modeling.
