Welcome to ISES!  :)  Sincerely, your ISES Indiana Board of Directors



·         What is your title and position at your current company? Regional Sales Manager
         
  • What does your company do?  How is it different than others like it?  We are a casino event entertainment company that provides everything from professionally trained dealers to casino quality game tables and equipment. We are different from other casino entertainment companies because we are the ONLY casino equipment supplier in the Midwest that uses REAL casino equipment and 16.1 gram casino chips. Our equipment can be found on the casino floor of over a ½ dozen casinos in Las Vegas alone. This allows us to offer the most realistic Las Vegas style casino event without any risk and much more fun!

  • How many years have you been in the industry?  I have been in the industry for two years.

  • What was your very first job? When I was 14 years old, I was a busser at a restaurant called Heritage House.

  • What lead you in into the event industry? I started out by working as a casino dealer part-time. As I dealt at events, I would end up booking events and grew to really like doing sales for casino services. My boss approached me about it and offered me a sales manager position, so here I am!

  • Why did you decide to join ISES? I decided to join ISES because of the vast network of people that I could create relationships with that would use our services.

  • What are you looking to gain out of our ISES membership and how can we help you achieve that?  I’m looking to increase my client base, increase my sales, and increase awareness of my company’s services. ISES could help by having networking events, spotlight my company on your internet resources, and allow us to host an ISES event with a casino as entertainment.

  • What is your most memorable event? Why? We hosted a casino fundraiser for the Josh Lindblom Foundation last November. I got meet him and talked about him being traded from the Philadelphia Phillies to the Texas Rangers. I got his autograph and had a lot of fun at this event.

  • What’s one thing most people don’t know about you? I was born and raised in Hawaii.

  • If you were not in the event industry, what would be your dream job?  I would love to be an ice cream taste tester.
