She has always known where to find the extraordinary.
For decades, Xitlalt Herrera has been the person people call when they need to know who to bring into the room, who to trust, and who can elevate a vision into something unforgettable.
Known as an elevation expert, tastemaker, cultural curator, and connector, Xitlalt built her career at the intersection of luxury, entertainment, communications, culture, and experience. Her 15-year tenure at Neiman Marcus deepened a network of extraordinary artists, creatives, producers, stylists, photographers, entertainers, publicists, and industry leaders- people she knew could transform a vision into a moment.
But her gift was never simply knowing the right people. It was knowing what could happen when the right people came together.
THE OTHER SIDE…
Extraordinary ideas should not require extraordinary effort just to find the right people.
As a client, creating something extraordinary often meant calling one person for talent, another for production, another for creative, another for public relations, another for styling- and then conducting all those moving pieces toward the same vision.
But Xitlalt had always been a conductor of the extraordinary.
She knew how to bring different talents, perspectives, and creative forces together and make them feel like they were part of something greater than themselves.
She could hear the symphony before everyone else could hear the music.
And yet, too often, the instruments lived in separate rooms.
The talent existed.
The creativity existed.
The relationships existed.
What was missing was the connection between them.
THE QUESTION…
What if access could be designed?
Not simply access to talent.
Access to possibility.
What if the process could begin with the vision- not with a list of vendors?
What if strategy could sit beside creativity?
What if relationships could become a bridge to possibility?
What if the people behind the work were connected before the work even began?
That question became X Level.
Xitlalt (seek-LAH-lique) the Nahuatl word for "Northern Star", symbolizing hope, guidance, tranquility and making your world sparkle.
More than a stage…
She saw what could happen beyond the stage..
XAgency became the answer to a question Xitlalt had been hearing for years: “Who should I book?”
As a public speaker herself, Xitlalt saw how often the same voices were invited to the stage, while extraordinary thinkers, storytellers, experts, and leaders remained just beyond the spotlight.
XAgency is our curated destination for public speakers, thought leaders, entertainers, talent, DJs, and brand ambassadors who bring expertise, energy, and influence to the room.
When you need someone who can shift the conversation, command the room, or make the moment matter, XAgency is where you start.
Book talent that makes an impact.
Elevation begins before the opportunity.
She saw the same possibility with talent.
Extraordinary talent is everywhere. But talent alone does not always create access.
Positioning matters.
Preparation matters.
Narrative matters.
Presentation matters.
Through XCreative, talent and brands can engage our expertise to refine the story, identity, positioning, and creative vision behind who they are and what they bring to the world.
When there is a strategic fit, that work can create a pathway to consideration for the XAgency roster- connecting preparation with access and opportunity.
We do not simply connect talent & brands to opportunities. We prepare them for the moment when the right opportunity arrives.
Because sometimes the greatest elevation is not discovering the talent.
It is helping the world see what was already there.
