#373 Bethany Stone

What makes Beth a Badass Gal? Where to start, since I've known her I've considered her to be a boss ass bitch.
Never lacking confidence in herself or other women around her I think has really propelled Beth into her current position. Not Just a Comms Designer / Copy writer at Design Bridge but a mentor for Creative Mentor Network (@CMNetwork_) and a avid attender of Ladies Wine and Design events. Being a feminist in a difficult industry for women has only benefitted Beth and she's an inspiration for me, and I think for a lot of other (not just female) creatives out there to show that YES we are BADASS and we should support each other.
Beth has an interesting story, getting picked up straight from D&AD New Blood to work at Design Bridge and how she's progressed from there, getting more and more involved with how she can help others in the industry. I personally think it's quite refreshing to see somebody to be selfless and also want to bring people to the top with her. :D

And so in a nutshell, thats why she's a little Bristolian Badass, I'm sure she can tell you more :D.
