And for the past six-plus years, I’ve been the general manager for Harrah’s Philadelphia in Chester, Pennsylvania, and now we have the exciting job to do another opening and come down to Danville to open Caesars Virginia. From there, I moved to our property just south of Chicago in Indiana. That was my first real, big opening experience and I was the assistant general manager on that project. It took me from Las Vegas to New Orleans to Cincinnati, which is where I had the opportunity to open a casino there, the Horseshoe Cincinnati. From there, I just continued to get different and exciting jobs within the company. Then I got the opportunity to move down to Las Vegas and become a director of slots for what at the time was the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
I learned all about slot operations, slot analytics, slot machines, and I did that for a little under a year. At the time, there was a management trainee program called the president’s associate program, and I started with the company in Lake Tahoe in the slots path.
I joined the company out of business school. Q: Tell me about yourself and the path that brought you to Danville.Ī: I’ve been with Caesars for 17 and a half years.
