Tribal Chairman Adam Dalton hailed the appointment: “Crystal is a proven leader who has played an instrumental role in Jackson Rancheria’s growth over the last 14 years,” he said. “We are honored to have Crystal as our CEO and look forward to working closely with her as we drive our business forward and achieve the many goals of our expanding portfolio.”
