Sometimes you just have to be in the right place at the right time and get seen by the right person.

She worked HS games starting in 1999, but worked up to that for a few years like many do (working youth and MS games). This was her first season working a full CUSA schedule, according to the NYT article posted earlier this fall.
To work a bowl in her first full season in the conference? I can't imagine a typical recruit getting that kind of recognition.
