COURTNEY AKI
ABOUT COURTNEY AKI Courtney Aki is an African-American & Japanese interna@onal model, writer, entertainment pr guru and entrepreneur, hailing from Bal@more, Maryland. At the age of 12, Courtney and her mother moved to Germany, living and traveling throughout Europe for three years. The move sparked her passion for traveling the world and lust for new experiences & opportuni@es. She aOributes her @me in Germany for fostering her interna'onal flair, iden@fying more so as “a global ci'zen of the world.” This global wanderess has traveled to over 20 countries, and has lived in five different states and four different countries.
With a bachelor’s degree in Communica@on: Public Rela@ons, Courtney immediately began her career in entertainment public rela@ons in New York City, aXer gradua@ng from the University of Maryland, College Park. She subsequently relocated to Los Angeles a year later, & her versa@lity and dynamic capabili@es within the entertainment industry soon established Courtney as a “Jill-of-all-Trades.” But with a look highly sought-aXer in commercial Los Angeles, she shortly pursued her career in modeling full-@me, booking a number of commercials, fashion and beauty campaigns, endorsements and editorial work na@onwide.
As of recently, Courtney has lived somewhat of a nomadic lifestyle, extending her exper@se and brand interna@onally. She made her way back overseas, branching out to take on the most populated city in the world, Shanghai. Not only modeling for interna@onal clients, but Courtney shook up the city’s bustling nightlife scene consul@ng and marke@ng for some of the most exclusive nightlife brands in the city.
Courtney has worked with and walked runways for clients such as Toyota of China, The Voice China, Mercedes-Benz, E! Network, Vidal Sassoon, Hilton Hotels, Marcelo Quadros, Patricia Bonaldi, GIG, Cecilia Prado, Pat Bo, Dry Laundry Japan, American Airlines, Samsung, Sprint Wireless, Coca-Cola, Schweppes Interna@onal, Forevermark Diamonds, Kay Jewelers, and countless other brands worldwide.
A crea@ve and posi@ve spirit, this globalista has finally combined her two greatest passions into one space and will offer her collec@on of travel memoirs and exper@se through A Model Abroad by Courtney Aki, launching December 2016. Courtney is also a freelance travel writer for various travel blogs and websites.
