Marisa Zimmerman
Chief Revenue Officer
ANALYTICAL INFLUENCER
Investing in impressions
Zimmerman’s department may be small, but it impacts how people engage with the Illinois Lottery every day through marketing materials, events, sports partnerships and paid media efforts. For a team that receives one of the largest budgets at the company, there’s a fair amount of pressure. Zimmerman, a self-described “analytical person by nature,” said Allwyn’s return on investment remains top of her mind.

Award-winning team members
What does professional growth at Allwyn look like for Williams? First, let’s start with her nickname. It’s “oracle,” which was coined by colleagues due to the four-plus years of knowledge and expertise that Williams has accrued in her tenure and is always willing to share. That same knowledge and expertise has also won Williams two awards since joining Allwyn, the PCC Golden Trumpet in Community Relations and TBT News Corporate Titan Award for D&I.
