UNLV wrote a spotlight on journalism student Masi Sanchez, who was a summer intern with the Las Vegas Super Bowl Host Committee.
From the story:
Her memories the NFL’s championship game take her back to growing up in Guam as a young child and Tucson as a high schooler. In Guam, it was known as Super Bowl Monday, and some schools set up their auditorium screens for kids to watch the big game airing at the same time as the U.S. In Tucson, Sanchez was laser focused on how the ads came to fruition. “I wouldn’t mute the TV during commercials,” said Sanchez. “The Super Bowl was exciting because I liked watching ads. My dream has always been to create a Super Bowl ad.” And that passion drove Sanchez to apply for an internship this summer with Las Vegas Super Bowl Host Committee, a nonprofit group tasked with helping Las Vegas prepare to host the National Football League’s Super Bowl LVIII in 2024.
