==Symbolism==
The components of the blazon relate to the armiger's faith, home, family, efficient industry, and working together in an organized way to build up his home. The '''chevron''' represents him as a builder (of minds) who has accomplished work of faithful service (terminal degree and lifelong work in education). The chevron as an architectural element refers to establishing or building a house. As a burst (or broken) chevron, it also serves as a reminder to be humble--the armiger is a work in progress (broken heart and contrite spirit, C. S. Lewis quotation “Imagine yourself as a living house”). The chevron also is visually reminiscent of an open book (learning), a bridge (a metaphor for mediating between extremes in the armiger's field and in life), and mountains (where his family and he live). The '''burst chevron and the beehive''' also subtly form the letters of the armiger's monogram (MAO-a visual cant). The '''three bees''' represent the armiger's three children, three university degrees, and three work places. The overall colors, in addition to representing the values listed above, represent at least one color from each of the universities where the armiger has worked.
Further information may be found at the armiger's personal armorial [https://mowensphd.wordpress.com/armorial/ website].
