Two established gaming executives on Wednesday were recommended for licensing by the Nevada Gaming Control Board.
In separate hearings in Carson City, Joe Asher, a longtime sports wagering leader in the state, was recommended for approval as a key executive as IGT president of sports gaming, while Julie Cameron-Doe, chief financial officer for Wynn Resorts Ltd., was backed by the board in a finding of suitability as an officer.
Both votes were unanimous. The Nevada Gaming Commission is expected to consider final approval of both licenses at its April 20 meeting.
Asher, a Delaware native who attended the University of Delaware and once clerked for the Delware Supreme Court, practiced law for a New York City firm.
