Interview Question #5

Q: What were some of the major accomplishments in your life?

A: Well, I would say one of my largest accomplishments was nursing dozens of wounded soldiers back to health. Knowing that I have helped even one life makes me know that it is all worth it. Helping my brother survive his fall is also one of my accomplishments. I helped my brother live and that makes me so happy. I founded a school for the workers in my brother’s mill. I was also the first woman to work in the U.S. Patent Office. One of my largest accomplishments was founding the American Red Cross. The International Red Cross asked me to start it and I agreed. I was the first president of the American Red Cross. I worked in relief efforts in so many places. I also wrote several books. Two of them were published. I am extremely pleased that I have helped so many people. I think these are some of my major accomplishments. I just had to keep my head up and keep helping others no matter what.

I struggled at the begging, its hard to get your foot in the door, but when you do your flourished with a variety of opportunities. i was very grateful for my role as ana damby in my comeback play. Everything was going down hill then finally i got a good role and my career bolted up.that was my highlight.
