His experience includes time with such companies as Great Canadian Entertainment, Apollo Global Management, Hard Rock International, Rush Street Interactive, Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, Bwin and more. He talks about where the sports betting market is headed in the U.S. and also discusses the possibility of more states entering the iGaming market.
