"An innovator and internet pioneer, Hilary Rowland launched her first two award-winning and commercially successful sites (HILARY Magazine and New Faces®) in 1995, when she was just 15 years old. Hilary taught herself to code and build web sites by trial-and-error, and invented online casting and portfolios, as well as launching the first ever online magazine for women.
New Faces® (www.newfaces.com) was the first online portfolio site [of any kind] and is still at the top of its game as the premier [and first] online community for models & talent. New Faces is used by top casting agents and industry pros and is the most respected in its sector. See newfaces.com/success
Urbanette Magazine (www.urbanette.com) was the first online women's magazine [previously named HILARY Magazine www.hilary.com]. In 1995, when Hilary was just 15, she set out to make a magazine that would be a positive influence in young women's lives. The goal: fashion, fun and female empowerment!
In 2009, Hilary founded Project Migration (www.projectmigration.org). She designed a line of fashion apparel and accessories which are sold as a means of fundraising. With each sale, a struggling single mother in central Africa is given clean water and life-saving medical supplies. "
