Xenia Kontou
Managing Director
Hi to everyone!!
I’m Xenia and I’ m the founder of Agencia.
I started working as a model when I was 17 years old and a few years later I ”switched” position from a model to accountant in my mother agency.
Not long after though, I became scouter and a booker and I started managing the whole team of the agency I was working for.
I have travelled around the world, meeting agencies, managers and models . All these, led me to open my own agency in 2013.
Agencia is the result of a combination of experience, knowledge, coaching management, respectfulness and most of all, the right team!
Each one of the people who work here, makes the difference!
Please meet my team…
Cleo Lazogeorgou
Model Agent
Hi I’m Cleo,
I was born in Athens.
My studies in Marketing and Public Relations, was a very helpful step for me to get into an advertising company and afterwards, I easily moved in a model agency working as a secretary. In 2001, an urgent replacement of a main booker, put me in a position I love until today.
Booking for me has two goals. One is to make every single model happy for being in this industry and the second, the communication with the clients and the best service.
I love what I do.
Dimitra Spiropoulou
Model / Scouting Agent
Hey!
I was born and raised in Athens.
In a house full of images, I studied photography. Even if I thought that this is what I loved the most, I finally became a stylist.
After 14 years working almost in every magazine, my life brought me in the booking table.
In my free time I do Pilates and travelling the mountains.
Alexandra Marselou
Model Agent
Hello I’m Alexandra,
I was born in Athens in the 90s.
Growing up and witnessing the « birth » of social media, I had a huge interest for its impact and potential in the future. That’s why I studied media and communication.
Working in a model agency was exactly what I had in mind after graduating. I started as the lead of administration, where I learned how to work and communicate with models.
Now that I’m in the booking division, I realize how proud I am of my decision to work in a business that combines all my passions; media, team – work, communication and fashion.

Filippos Chatzis
Scouting Agent
Hi I ‘m Filippos and I’m a photographer…
I started in 2010 in Athens.
After building for 2 years my portfolio, I moved to London were I lived and worked for 2 years.
In 2014 , my work , was strong enough to try to New York, a city where I stayed for another 2 years working as assistant of Steven Klein and Ines and Vinoodh. That was a huge experience for me and my photography moved on a higher level…
Then I moved back to London were it turned to a very busy time working VOGUE, L’OFFIEL, L’OFFIEL HOMMES, ELLE, SCHON, Marie Claire, FLASCO, VESTAL etc.
Now, Athens is my basic city, but I travel a lot, specially to London where most of my connections are.
The last year, a new project which caught my attention, is the discover of new strong faces who may be the future international models.
Scouting is exciting!
Naya Bouradoni
Financial Accounting analyst
Hello, I’ m Naya!
I was born in Athens at very late of 80’s.
My studies in marketing, public relations and communication and my Master of business administration ‘landed’ me in the financial department of Agencia, as both of accountant and analyst in a business which for me is very ‘rich’ of doing many different things.
One of them, which I enjoy every day in that position, is meeting so many different people from countries with different cultures.
Above all, my heart belongs in fashion, as I see myself in the future as a client who will hire the models to work for my clothing company.
In my free time I explore the world!
