I have been a self-managed model for a while where I worked with random photographers here and there, the game has changed after I met Sophia, CEO of HBM talent agency. I was on the verge of walking away from the industry because of lack of support and toxic encounters with unscrupulous individuals. Sophia is a great mentor and CEO, every minute spent with her has not only been educational, but personable and supportive. I truly value our partnership and I chose them among others in the nation because of their values and strong reputation within the industry that align with mine.
