Galaxy Gaming Appoints John Boushy To Board Of Directors

Galaxy Gaming has appointed John Boushy to its board of directors, bringing more than 45 years of experience across the gaming, hospitality, technology and entertainment industries.

Boushy succeeds Meredith Brill, who has informed the company of her intention to step down after serving on the board for four years.

The appointment strengthens Galaxy Gaming's leadership team as the company continues pursuing its long-term growth strategy, with Boushy bringing extensive experience in corporate governance, strategic planning, mergers and acquisitions, and gaming operations.

Throughout his career, Boushy has held senior executive and advisory positions at several major US casino operators, including Caesars Entertainment, Ameristar Casinos and Harrah's Entertainment.

Boushy Brings More Than Four Decades Of Gaming Experience

Boushy is the founder and managing member of Boushy Consulting, an advisory business providing strategic, operational and development guidance to gaming operators, investors and senior executives.

Through his consultancy, he has undertaken executive management responsibilities with the parent company of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas and advised the Second Priority Noteholders Committee during the bankruptcy proceedings involving Caesars Entertainment Operating Company.

He subsequently served on the board of Caesars Entertainment following the company's emergence from bankruptcy, gaining further experience in corporate restructuring and governance.

Before establishing his consultancy, Boushy served as President and CEO of Ameristar Casinos, having previously spent more than two decades at Harrah's Entertainment in various senior leadership positions.

His experience spans casino development, operational management, technology implementation and corporate transactions, providing Galaxy Gaming with additional expertise as it develops its business.

The company has not announced any additional changes to its board or provided further details regarding the timing of Brill's departure.

Boushy's appointment adds an experienced gaming executive to Galaxy Gaming's leadership structure, with his background in casino operations, corporate transactions and technology expected to contribute to the company's ongoing strategic development.
