  extend ActiveModel::Naming
  include ActiveModel::Conversion
  extend Virtus::Extras::FormObject

  form_attributes :first_name,
                  :last_name,
                  :display_name,
                  :model => String

  form_attributes :is_active,
                  :model => Integer

  form_attributes :hidden,
                  :model => Integer,
                  :writer => :private
