“That we’re always playing blackjack in our free time. In reality, Nevada is blessed with tremendous outdoor activities, the year-round weather to enjoy them, and plenty of opportunities for cultural learning beyond the casino doors.”Rory T. Kay | Attorney, McDonald Carano Wilson, LLP (Hails from: Lincoln, NE)
“It’s not just misconceptions as much as it is people thinking it’s the rule. I was recently in Kentucky and people there thought we must all live in Las Vegas and we all know showgirls and mobsters. No one thinks about some of us living in the high desert and boasting a cowboy heritage. Too funny!”Tina Perchetti | Sales Executive, LP Insurance Services, Inc. (Hails from: Ely, NV)
“Non-residents just don’t understand that we don’t live in hotels and gamble daily. Although we live in the desert, you can lead an active lifestyle with Mt. Charleston, Red Rock, Lake Mead and other beautiful outdoor scenery.”Jason Chan | Market Development Manager, CenturyLink Las Vegas (Hails from: Houston, TX)
“Non-Nevadans are unaware of the astonishing outdoor pleasures of our state. Hiking in the picturesque Tahoe Valley, cycling through Red Rock Canyon or a picnic at Mt. Charleston are just a few Nevada natural experiences.”Seth Schorr | CEO, Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino (Hails from: Las Vegas, NV)
“Nevada is more than Las Vegas or Harry Reid. There is a vibrant community in northern Nevada where people achieve incredible accomplishments. Nevada truly is capable of merging community with aspiration and ambition. Refreshing.”Max J. Coppes, M.D., Ph.D., MBA | Executive Vice President, Chief Medical & Academic Officer, Renown Health (Hails from: Netherlands)
“We are not all bad drivers; we just happen to be a melting pot community comprised of drivers with habits from different communities.”Jesus G. Moreno | VP and Nevada Market Growth Consultant, Wells Fargo Personal and Small Business Insurance (Hails from: Las Vegas, NV)
