Gov. Joe Lombardo announced Wednesday that Reno deputy city attorney Chandeni Sendall will fill a seat on the Nevada Gaming Control Board vacated by Brittnie Watkins, whose term ended this week. Watkins, appointed by Gov. Steve Sisolak in 2021, declined to seek reappointment.
Sendall began working at the City of Reno in 2015. Before that she worked as an in-house legal intern for Caesars Entertainment, and clerked for former Nevada Supreme Court Justice James Hardesty. She is a graduate of the Boyd School of Law at UNLV. Before becoming a lawyer, Sendall worked as an internal auditor for Caesars Entertainment.
“With her unique background in law and compliance, Chandeni will bring fresh insight and critical perspective to the Board,” Lombardo said in a news release Wednesday. “I look forward to her leadership and contributions to gaming oversight in our state.”
