Beth Neville (double first name) was born and raised in Japan, where she got used to looking different from everyone around her.  She studied piano at Warren Wilson College and worked as a dressmaker around Charlottesville for 20 years.  In 2001, after a visit to San Mateo Ixtatán, she formed the Ixtatán Foundation in response to officials seeking help to build a high school there.
