After graduation, Thomsen plans to stay in Reno and look for a job in either customer service, marketing or social media.

"I'm planning to stay in the Reno area because I'm thinking about working in casino hotel management or event planning," Thomsen said. "I definitely want to find a good opportunity where I know I'm going to fit in well."

"Join a club and start networking, talking to people and make those connections. The most important thing is to get your foot in the door."
