A Note from Beth Regarding the conception of her logo:
"After graduating college, I won a DeBeers Diamonds International Award based on a drawn entry. I went to seek much needed advice from my high school jewelry teacher and first mentor, Roy Risley, on how to execute the piece.

I was overwhelmed at winning as well as feeling young and inexperienced on the bench. He began "helping" me on the execution of the metal work by asking me if I had ever seen the "wizard of Oz". Having nothing to do with the conversation, i was a bit confused. He went on to ask what the "Lion" needed. The answer, of course, is "Courage". I just needed the courage to sit at the bench and begin executing the piece and to have the confidence in my abilities.

I began to realize this "Courage" was what one needed in life. Small steps lead to  larger overall step. With a little bit of "Courage" people can accomplish anything they set their minds to. With this and also being born under the sign of Leo my logo was created.

The winning piece was completed and I was flown to Paris, France to receive my award."
