Daniel Rubin

Business & Studio Coordinator

Daniel Rubin joined NBW in 2025 as Business & Studio Coordinator. With a background in creative operations and community building, Daniel brings a unique blend of structure, adaptability, and people-centered thinking to the studio. He previously worked for a global creative startup that connected brands, NGOs, and media organizations with creators, managing everything from client communications to operations and executive support. He later transitioned into special education, teaching a seventh-grade class of students with disabilities in Brooklyn. Through designing individualized lesson plans and collaborating daily with families, therapists, and paraprofessionals, Daniel developed a sharp capacity for organization and an empathetic, collaborative approach to problem-solving - grounded in a drive to create systems that support both people and ideas. 

Born and raised in New York with strong roots in Denmark, Daniel has long been inspired by the relationship between people, design, and the built and natural environment. His interest in design, and how it connects people to place, deeply aligns with NBW’s mission and values. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Communications and Journalism from the University of Vermont.
