She's not just a former Bruin, but at age 28, she's the youngest female agent. And she got the job done for Trevor.

Here's a profile about her rise in sports business, and its challenges, from the New York Daily News.

Of particular interest:

“I’ll take the brunt of the criticism and then maybe future generations of girls won’t have to worry about posting a picture in their sports bras on Instagram,” Luba tells the Daily News in a recent phone interview. “It’s not always easy. But maybe if I can handle it, then other girls won’t feel that pressure when they try to work in sports.”

I have some mixed feelings about her posts, but overall I say kudos to her. She is right, breaking into that industry as a female is difficult, but the door is now open for a lot of young women who may want to become agents.
