Eickelman takes the place of Phyllis A. Gilland, SVP & General Counsel at Golden Entertainment, who served as GGW’s president for the past two years. She said, “I am very proud of the number of women GGW has been able to reach out to and affect through the GGW educational and event opportunities GGW has provided, and of how we have grown GGW’s presence and structure. I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to work with the past and present Board members whose continued support is so important to mission of organization.”
Eickelman was one of the founding members on the Global Gaming Women Board. Previously she served as Vice President & co-chair of the Events Committee. She said as President her primary goal will be to ensure the financial future of the organization.
“Global Gaming Women has a strong mission statement, and our guiding principles of courage, integrity, and leadership continue to inspire our Board and the women we serve. We are grateful to the many companies and individuals who back GGW, and as we broaden our donor structure, we will ensure we will have the resources necessary to support the development of women at all levels throughout the industry,” Eickelman said.
Giving back to her community is a passion for Eickelman. She is a member of the Andson Foundation Board and on the Executive Leadership Committee of the American Heart Association-Go Red for Women Luncheon of Southern Nevada. Recently the Oklahoma Indian Gaming Association honored her contributions to the Indian Gaming Industry with the 2019 OIGA Modern Day Warrior Award.

She joined GLI in 1999 as Marketing Manager, shaping GLI’s brand in North America.
