As a Hospitality & Retail Operations Leader, I partner with my senior leadership team to scale business through rapid M&A and organic growth. 𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗚𝗟𝗢𝗕𝗔𝗟 𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗠𝗦 𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗕𝗘𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗗 Someone once said, “Don’t be the sage on the stage. Be the guide on the side.” I take this to heart when I bring internal and external teams together from various highly skilled disciplines to advance the goals of our company. The best thing I can do for my teams is get out of their way and let them execute with excellence against my vision of success. I’ve been inspired by their expertise—which spans retail programming; secure and compliant state-of-the-art technology development; robust multi-unit infrastructure builds; global office openings; operational design and renovation; and new construction builds—as they deliver all within budget and ambitious deadlines. 𝗕𝗬-𝗧𝗛𝗘-𝗡𝗨𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥𝗦 𝗦𝗡𝗔𝗣𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗧 The following provides a glimpse into the breadth of my oversight and the capabilities of my teams: 𝗦𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 180+ sportsbook locations w/ high-tech wagering installations 3K kiosk units across 32 states 5 office openings in 2 states + 3 countries 𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 4 locations 200+ agents hired + AI installations 4K contacts/day 𝗛𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗹 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 Multiple 2K+ room casino hotel operational leadership (including rate management & renovations) 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗘 & 𝗔𝗚𝗜𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬 As my career trajectory illustrates, I embrace change. I launched my career in small hotels and soon transitioned to the training space. Then, when an opportunity arose with Harrah’s to run their casinos, I jumped at the chance to move to Vegas. Ultimately, I landed with William Hill and Caesars Digital, where I served as SVP and CSBO leading their Retail Sports Betting operation. This agility has served me well as I profitably navigated two global economic crises that disproportionately impacted my industry. 𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗨𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗬 𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗗𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗛𝗜𝗣 Strong outside relationships are key to our success, and it’s been a privilege to contribute to meetings, conferences, and other industry events, including as: ∎ Panelist at the SBC Summit North America (annual gaming trade show) in 2022 & 2023 ∎ Presenter on the business of Sports Betting for the Dept. of Small & Local Business Development (DSLBD) in 2021 & 2022
