Commission Leadership

Mark B. Hill was selected Commissioner Chair of the Six Nations Gaming Commission in August 2024. A member of the Mohawk Nation, Bear Clan, he brings to the role a distinguished record of elected leadership within Six Nations of the Grand River.

Prior to joining the Commission, Hill served as Elected Chief of Six Nations of the Grand River, preceded by three consecutive terms as Councillor. Over that period, he developed extensive experience in the gaming portfolio, gaining a deep understanding of the sector from both political and community perspectives while advocating for First Nations interests and economic opportunity within the sector. He currently serves as Principal Partner at Rezolve Strategies, a 100% First Nation–owned and operated consulting firm focused on building meaningful partnerships between First Nations and industry.

Hill holds Indian Gaming Association Commissioner Certification Training Levels 1, 2 & 3.

He believes that when governed responsibly, gaming is a powerful tool for community impact — one that creates opportunities for growth, self-determination, and the generation of own-source revenue. “Equally important,” he notes, “is having a strong regulatory body that ensures integrity, accountability, and that gaming operates in a way that truly benefits our people and our future.”

John Earl Hill, known as Jack, is Vice Chair of the Six Nations Gaming Commission, a position he has held since 2014. A member of the Mohawk Nation from the Lower Mohawk community, Hill brings to the Commission more than fifty years of skilled trades experience — including structural ironwork on landmark projects across North America and beyond — alongside deep community roots at Six Nations, including service as president, vice president, and coach of the Six Snakes and Arrows lacrosse team and as a district representative on the Six Nations Home and School Committee.

He holds Indian Gaming Association Commissioner Certification at Levels 1, 2, and 3, and Master-level certification through the Indian Gaming Association.

For Hill, the Commission’s purpose is clear: any gaming on Six Nations territory should be governed by Six Nations — and the community, not outside interests, should be the one that benefits.

Trevor Bomberry has served as a Commissioner on the Six Nations Gaming Commission since 2015. A lifelong member of Six Nations of the Grand River and of the Mohawk Nation, Turtle Clan, Bomberry brings a governance background rooted in land rights and nation-building — including his tenure as Litigation Support Supervisor in the Lands and Resources department at Six Nations of the Grand River, and as Haudenosaunee Six Nations Coordinator during the Kanohstaton negotiations. He currently serves as Executive Director of Nation Building for the Six Nations of the Grand River Elected Council.

Bomberry holds an Honours Bachelor of Arts – Sociology, Minor – Indigenous Studies from McMaster University, Indian Gaming Association Commissioner Certification at Levels 1, 2, and 3, and Master-level certifications in Licensing and Investigations; Surveillance, Cheats & Scams; and Cyber-Pandemic: The Ransomware Threat to Tribal Gaming.

Having seen firsthand how gaming has driven financial independence for other First Nations and Tribal Nations, Bomberry understands what is within reach for Six Nations of the Grand River — and brings that conviction to every decision he makes on the Commission.

Fred Doolittle was selected to the Six Nations Gaming Commission in 2020. A member of the Mohawk Nation, Turtle Clan, he brings to the role a perspective rooted in community — one shaped not in boardrooms, but on the courts and fields where Six Nations youth compete.

Before joining the Commission, Doolittle ran an elite high school basketball club for boys and girls, drawing on gaming funds to bring young athletes to tournaments they could not otherwise afford to enter. That experience — of seeing what community-generated revenue can do for young people — informs everything he brings to his work as a Commissioner.
Doolittle holds Indian Gaming Association Commissioner Certification at Levels 1, 2, and 3, and is currently working toward Master-level designation.

“Helping the community, especially the youth, with financial backing — that’s what this work is about,” he says. The Commission, in his view, exists to help the community steer toward sovereignty: not as an abstract concept, but as something felt in the daily lives of the people it serves.

Greg Frazer serves as Council Representative to the Six Nations Gaming Commission, selected by the Six Nations Elected Council since 2023. The Council Representative role serves as the formal bridge between the Commission and elected leadership — ensuring that the Commission’s regulatory work remains connected to, and accountable to, the community’s governance structures. A member of the Mohawk Nation, Wolf Clan, Frazer brings that perspective directly to the Commission’s work.

Frazer holds Indian Gaming Association Commissioner Certification and has attained Master-level designation in Surveillance.

Melanie Bomberry has served the Six Nations Gaming Commission for twenty-five years. A member of the Cayuga Nation, she has been part of the Commission since its earliest years — a constant presence through every phase of its development.

Bomberry holds a Bachelor of Business Administration from Brock University in Ontario and brings that foundation to the operational and administrative backbone of the Commission’s work. She holds Indian Gaming Association Commissioner Certification and has attained Master-level designations in Surveillance, Investigations and Backgrounds, and Cyber Security.
