Las Vegas-based Global Market Advisors (GMA) last week announced that it will up its focus on Indian Gaming with the appointment of Ericka Meeske Rafferty as vice president of Native American Gaming.
GMA, which serves the casino gaming, hospitality and airline industries, and has providing consulting services for over 60 tribes in North America, praised Rafferty. “Few people in our industry have the skill sets, depth of knowledge, and respect for Indian culture as does Erika,” said GMA Senior Partner Andrew Klebanow.
Rafferty has completed 250 projects for over 75 tribes during her over ten years of gaming and hospitality experience. She was raised in the hotel and resort business. She is also a writer who contributes regularly to Global Gaming Business Magazine, Tribal Government Gaming, and Indian Gaming Magazine and is a frequent speaker and panelist at G2E and NIGA.
