Mesquite Gaming announced the hiring of Andy Falkof as vice president of marketing and advertising.
Falkof brings over 20 years of marketing experience to CasaBlanca Resort & Casino and Virgin River Hotel & Casino, Mesquite Gaming’s properties in Mesquite northeast of Las Vegas.
Falkof will be responsible for creating programs and campaigns to increase gaming and non-gaming revenue. He’ll play an important role, as the company is currently renovating and rebranding both properties.

Falkof’s gaming career began with Caesars Entertainment. He later became vice president of loyalty marketing for Sands China, where he remained for six years. He then joined Melco Resorts & Entertainment in Manila as the vice president of strategy and analytics.
Falko also served as senior vice president and chief marketing officer of Great Canadian Entertainment. Most recently, he worked as vice president of marketing for Rivers Casino in Philadelphia.
