Amelia Keith Is Pretty In The Queen City By Mimi Zelman
When I first met Amelia Keith I was quite taken with her grace and style
and she walks her talk. Amelia began a modeling career during her teens, discovering early on her true passion was behind the camera. Over the years she has gained experience as an image consultant, talent agent, model/actress and has taught self confidence/interview skill classes to individuals of all ages.
After continuously being approached by talent for guidance in the Entertainment Industry, Ame- lia decided to open her own image consulting firm. In late 2006, she transitioned the company over to a talent agency. This proved to be a good move as Amelia was named a finalist in the 2007 and 2008 American Business Awards, hailed as the “business world’s own Oscars” by The New York Post, in the category of Best Corporate Communicator and Winner of Best Creative Pro- fessional in 2008.
She is currently the booking coordinator for Jenni Schaefer: Speaker,Singer/Songwriter, and Author of Goodbye Ed, Hello Me (released in Sept 09 by McGraw-Hill) & Life Without Ed

When she’s not working on building her upcom- ing organization “This is Me...Unedited” or book- ing speaking engagements for Jenni, she is an
avid beauty product researcher and writer, shar- ing her reviews and experiences on her personal blog
PrettyintheQueenCity.Com . She is also a contributor to the beauty website
typeF.com (the new beauty/fashion website for Tyra Banks) and most recently the women’s site
SheSpeaks.com.
Amelia believes inner strength is the key to reflecting individuality and that many ignore their dreams because of self doubt and the first step in succeeding is believing in yourself. If you don’t, no one else ever will.
