Congratulations to Pepper Tree Entertainment Client CATM NY on the formation of a New Fashion Model Management Division!

Pepper Tree Entertainment is proud to announce the successful launch of CATM’s new model management division CATM NY Model.

CATM NY Model will continue to be represented and advised by Melody Kulesza and Dan Pepper of  Pepper Tree Entertainment and Pepper Law Group and will be run by the following team:

Jason Konrad – Managing Partner

Jason was the Head Booking Agent at Choice Model and Talent Management (CMT) NY for over 7 years.  While at CMT, Jason learned all sides of the modeling business.  He was responsible for everything from scouting new faces and developing talent and client relationships to less glamorous but equally important back office tasks, such as accounting, invoicing and website maintenance. While at CMT, Mr. Konrad developed his skills as a photographer.  To date, he has shot for magazines such as Elle, GQ Italy, Maxim, Cocoon, Forbes and Karin and Raoul.

Prior to becoming an agent, Mr. Konrad had a 5 year career as a lifestyle and commercial model.  He brings this perspective as a former model and combines this with his extensive experience as an international soccer player and coach.  It is this diverse background and skill set that uniquely qualifies Jason Konrad to bridge the ultra-competitive fields of entertainment, fashion and sport.

John DAbu – Creative Director

John is the co-founder and creative director of CATM New York. He has designed and art directed many high profile projects for personal and corporate clientele including Disney, News Corporation, Elizabeth Arden and BlackRock. He has designed for sites implemented in content management systems and has been featured in numerous publications. He brings to the table 16 years of design experience.

David Zelikovsky – Principal

David is the co-founder and principal of CATM New York.  He has curated shows for the past 10 years, including Mick Rock, Russell James, Nona Hendryx and A.S. Kandinsky. He was the driving force behind the not for profit organization, Fund Art Now.  He has dedicated his philanthropic efforts to the encouragement and development of the arts without prejudice.

John’s roots are in the luxury and branding business. He has assisted international luxury and life style retail brands with their US entry strategies and navigated them through their public and private sales campaigns. In addition to being a partner of CATM, John is currently the vice president of Diamond Club International, a luxury fine jewelry company which distributes to more than 4 continents and  is also the luxury goods editor of Swedish TV, Suroyo TV, which airs in Europe via satellite.
