Ferguson has worked at the
Potawatomi Hotel and Casino since 2015, starting off as chief financial officer. He became chief operating officer in April 2016 before being promoted to his new role.
"On behalf of the tribe's executive council, this is a pivotal moment of growth at Potawatomi Hotel & Casino and we're so pleased Rodney will be leading these efforts," Chairman Harold "Gus" Frank said in a

The casino is undergoing an $80 million expansion that will bring a second hotel tower to the property. The project is expected to be complete in the spring of 2019.
