"who you are" is a reasonable place to begin, but does not have quite

I see that people will have many personas, but only one identity. Each
persona presents a different facet of themselves.
Slippery slope alert!
This statement seems to mix the every-day meaning of identity with the
formal definition that is necessary for technical progress. What is
the precise relationship between a persona and an identity? Who gets
to know that relationship?
