It's a new year, and while most people make resolutions to improve themselves and change bad habits, I'm in a very lucky position: I've resolved to try and make even more dreams come true in 2011. One of the great talents who I expect to have another great year is Erica Rosen.

Erica was placed with one of the most prestigious agencies in the world, and we continue to develop and remain involved in her career. Erica signed with Elite NY and Ford Paris, thanks to our efforts. As a part of the Nijah family, she was one of our “Model of the Year” winners at IMTA.

I'm confident that this year we can find even more of the fresh, bright faces that we're known for and It's become one of the industry standards: Nijah's commitment to scouting and fostering relationships so that we can place more beautiful models like Erica.

As we prepare for this year's IMTA, we’re already making strides on how to surpass all of the benchmarks we set in 2010. I continue to be impressed by our scouting, our industry professional contacts and our team, who make Nijah the premier development center year-after-year.

Have a Happy New Year!
