Thorsten Toms will serve as a Client Solutions Executive, working to facilitate the needs of GLI customers, including land-based, online, sports betting and regulatory requirements.
This latter area is likely Toms’ speciality as he joins GLI from the Gun Lake Tribal Gaming Commission, where he was the Director of Gaming Administration for more than a decade.
The Commission is responsible for overseeing all gaming activities on the lands of the Gun Lake Tribe, otherwise known as the Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians.
As the Director of Gaming Administration, Toms oversaw the Commission’s licensing, audit and IT departments.
“We are grateful to have Thorsten join the award-winning GLI Client Solutions Team,” said Kevin Mullally, GLI’s SVP of Government Relations and General Counsel.
“His many skills and extensive regulatory and information technology background will assist GLI’s clients with land-based and online gaming, sports betting, lottery, regulatory and technology needs.”
Before joining the Gun Lake Tribal Gaming Commission, Toms served for a long time as an IT professional, working for companies such as 20-20 Technologies.
GLI’s Client Solutions Team Manager, Kelly Myers, commented: “Thorsten is well known in the tribal regulatory community and has more than a decade of experience assisting and training regulators.
“He has a deep understanding of information technology and a gift for automating systems.
“He is highly skilled at clearly communicating technical information to a non-technical audience, and we are excited to have him join our diverse and talented team.”
