Las Vegas-based Gaming Laboratories International recently announced the promotions of two professionals in its Engineering and Client Solutions departments. Malvina Mikaelian is the new Director of Engineering, and Kelly Myers has been promoted to Manager of Client Solutions. Mikaelian has been with GLI for more than 20 years, starting when GLI opened its lab in South Africa. She’s most recently served as Senior Manager of Engineering.
In her new role, Mikaelian will lead GLI’s Engineering teams working with regulators, operators, and suppliers to provide testing services and customer satisfaction.
“We are thrilled to promote Malvina to Director of Engineering,” said GLI Vice President of Engineering Sangeeta Reddy in a statement. “She has a proven record of success as an engineer, as a manager in developing engineers, and delivering high-quality work. Her experience and knowledge continue to inspire her team members and illuminate GLI’s clients’ pathway in integrated compliance.” Myers joined GLI’s tribal and government client services team in 2021 as a client services representative. She previously served as compliance and licensing manager for the Cherokee Nation Gaming Commission and was the Chair of the Oklahoma Tribal Regulators Association from 2014 to 2021.
In her new role, Myers will manage the team that supports GLI’s state and tribal regulators in the United States.
“From day one, Kelly has been a true leader for our state and tribal client services team,” said GLI Vice President of Government Relations & General Counsel Kevin Mullally in a statement. “Her experience in compliance and licensing enables her to approach clients with a deep understanding of their needs and issues. We expect Kelly to help lead continued growth and development of every member of the team.”
