Allison Galer admits she is an over-preparer. But as the founder of Disrupt the Game sports agency, it’s a quality that has served her well. In July 2012, 10 months after finishing her undergraduate studies at Brown, she launched her business, rostering just a single client. Nine years later, her client list, while still more limited than some of her competitors, features some of the biggest names in sports.
The WNBA’s Lisa Leslie, Chiney Ogwumike, Liz Cambage and the USWNT’s Crystal Dunn all work with Galer. Most recently, Disrupt the Game signed potential WNBA first-round pick Michaela Onyenwere, who is coming off a third-team All-America season at UCLA.
