Kathy Hillelson, CEO of Owl Financial Group, Celebrated in World Diamond Council Series

In a notable recognition of her contributions to the diamond industry, Kathy Hillelson, the CEO of Owl Financial Group, has been featured in the esteemed 'Women of the Diamond Industry' series by the World Diamond Council (WDC). This series, dedicated to spotlighting gender equality across the diamond and jewelry supply chain, offers a platform for women within the industry to share their narratives and shed light on the unique challenges they encounter throughout their careers.


In her feature, Kathy Hillelson recounts her journey, traversing from the realm of advertising to the intricate world of financing, all while maintaining a profound connection to the diamond sector. Undeterred by the male-dominated landscape or the shadow of being "the boss's daughter," Kathy embraced the challenge with fervor, determined to showcase her capabilities and expertise, establishing herself on the basis of merit and resilience.

Reflecting on her inclusion in the series, Kathy expressed heartfelt gratitude to the World Diamond Council for the opportunity to share her story alongside other inspirational women shaping the industry's future. She emphasized the privilege of narrating her evolution from following her father's footsteps to spearheading Owl Financial Group, LLC. Kathy underscored the significance of WDC's platform in amplifying women's voices and fostering a more inclusive and robust diamond industry.

"I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the World Diamond Council for featuring my story in their 'Women of the Diamond Industry' series," remarked Kathy. "It was truly an honor to be recognized alongside such inspiring women who are shaping the future of this industry. Sharing my journey, from my father's footsteps to building Owl Financial Group, LLC, was a privilege. The WDC’s platform for amplifying women's voices is invaluable, and I'm proud to be a part of it. Together, we can encourage and empower others as well as build a more inclusive, stronger diamond industry. I would not have achieved this without the amazing support and guidance along the way. Thank you, WDC, for this opportunity to promote diversity and inclusion in our industry."
