                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 9, 2013

  Mr. GINGREY of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, today I rise in honor Diaget 
Miller, a Sprayberry High School student from Kennesaw, Georgia, and 
founder of Diaget Design Studio. Diaget was recently recognized as one 
of the National Federation of Independent Business' (NFIB) 2013 Young 
Entrepreneur Award winners.
   It is a great source of pride to see one of the young people in 
Georgia's 11th District being nationally recognized for such focused 
ambition and willingness to take risk. It is this kind of initiative 
that truly embodies the American dream.
   Diaget founded her design studio at the young age of 14 after 
realizing her talent for digital art when helping her mother design 
brochures. Since then, her company has grown, attracting business 
state-wide.
   The yearly NFIB Young Entrepreneur Award is selected by an 
independent committee comprised of educators and small business leaders 
who not only evaluate applicants based on the quality of their 
businesses, but on their academic records, leadership qualities, and 
overall character.
   As one of this year's deserving winners, Diaget's prize will include 
a $1,000 scholarship from the National Federation of Independent 
Business Young Entrepreneur Foundation, which she will put toward her 
education and goal of someday becoming an anesthesiologist.
   Mr. Speaker, on behalf of Georgia's 11th District, I congratulate 
Diaget Miller on her tremendous success as an entrepreneur and wish her 
luck in all of her endeavors.
