His extensive technical background and experience in developing automated systems to make regulatory processes more efficient will be of immense value to GLI’s clients. His experience in developing and conducting compliance audits, most recently involving iGaming and sports betting, will grow GLI’s team of field services specialists.

“We are grateful to have Thorsten join the award-winning GLI Client Solutions team,” said Senior Vice President of Government Relations and General Counsel Kevin Mullally. “His many skills, and extensive regulatory and information technology background will assist GLI’s clients with land-based and online gaming, sports betting, lottery, regulatory, and technology needs. As a former regulator and longtime IT professional, he has presented and trained on a variety of products, and his extensive industry knowledge and experience as a trainer will augment our talented lineup of GLI University® faculty.”

“Thorsten is well known in the Tribal regulatory community and has more than a decade of experience assisting and training regulators,” said GLI Client Solutions Team Manager Kelly Myers. “He has a deep understanding of information technology and a gift for automating systems.
