When
it
came
to
Yellow
Jackets
soccer,
Julianna
Rubin
'17
put
her
game
face
on
and
stopped
opponent
goals.
Today,
the
former
Baldwin
Wallace
goalie
and
sport
management
major
is
out
to
score
goals
…
namely,
her
own
as
well
as
for
the
clients
she
serves
as
assistant
director
of
operations
for
nationally
renowned
Steinberg
Sports
and
Entertainment.
The
aspiring
sports
agent
balances
her
part-time
role
at
Steinberg
with
being
a
first-year
law
student
at
the
University
of
Miami,
a
two-hour
drive
from
her
home
town
of
Port
St.
Lucie,
Florida.
In
a
career
field
where
being
a
hard-charger
is
professionally
as
well
as
financially
lucrative,
Rubin
serves
as
a
role
model
for
the
value
that
poise
and
integrity
bring
to
the
pursuit
of
success.
Soccer,
studies
and
Super
Bowl
As
a
student,
Rubin
balanced
soccer
with
her
academic
studies
and
a
robust
schedule
of
co-curricular
activities.
She
interned
with
the
Greater
Cleveland
Sports
Commission,
ESPN
Cleveland
and
South
Florida
Surf
in
addition
to
participating
in
a
BW
study
abroad
trip
focused
on
global
sports.
While
preparing
to
travel
to
San
Francisco
to
participate
in
BW's
annual
Super
Bowl
trip,
she
made
a
bold
move
and
contacted
top
sports
agent
Leigh
Steinberg,
CEO
of
Steinberg
Sports
and
Entertainment,
about
volunteering
for
a
professional
event
he
was
hosting
that
weekend.
Her
keen
foresight
paid
off.
She
helped
out
at
the
event
by
greeting
guests
and
VIPs
as
well
as
assisting
clients.
Making
connections
that
count
The
connection
was
key.
Rubin
went
on
to
intern
with
Steinberg
Sports
and
Entertainment
in
summer
2017.
She
sat
in
on
meetings,
met
with
clients,
and
worked
on
recruitment
presentations,
endorsement
contracts
and
other
tasks
as
needed.
Upon
graduation,
she
continued
doing
projects
for
the
firm.
"Julianna
is
a
rising
star
in
the
industry,"
believes
Chris
Cabott,
COO
of
Steinberg
Sports
and
Entertainment.
"We
are
very
lucky
to
have
her
at
Steinberg
Sports
and
are
thankful
to
BW's
sport
management
program."
Transforming
her
dream
into
destiny
Today,
Rubin
attends
law
school
full
time
and
maintains
a
part-time
role
with
the
firm.
Her
goal
upon
graduation
is
to
register
as
an
agent
in
the
NFL
and
work
at
the
Steinberg
agency,
eventually
transitioning
into
baseball
operations.
"Were
it
not
for
BW's
Super
Bowl
trip
for
sport
management
majors,
I
would
have
never
met
Leigh
and
Chris,
who
believed
in
me
and
offered
me
an
internship
and
later
a
more
permanent
role
with
the
company.
My
dream
growing
up
was
to
be
a
sports
agent,"
said
Rubin.
"It
has
been
amazing
to
have
had
the
opportunity
to
work
for
the
best
while
still
in
college."
