Amy Hugo OWNER Company: Amethyst Address: 4808 Bethesda Avenue Bethesda, MD 20814 Phone: 301.907.6871 Web: ShopAmethyst.com After 15 years in the corporate world, Amy traded in her executive title for a chance to pursue an entrepreneurial dream in the jewelry industry. As an artistic hobby, Amy had been designing and making jewelry for more than a decade and decided it was time to marry her business background with her creative passion. The merger resulted in Amethyst, a hip fine jewelry boutique in the heart of Bethesda Row. After only three years in business, Amethyst was awarded a prestigious industry award as one of the top 25 designer jewelry stores in the country, ranking within the top five. In addition to Hugo’s designs, Amethyst carries more than 25 designers. “Being able to successfully do something I love and work with incredibly talented artists provides such an amazing sense of accomplishment.”
