Why did you join the Red Cross?        
I get satisfaction from helping people and being a Red Cross Volunteer gives me the opportunity to do so in many ways.              

What is your best Red Cross experience? 
My best experience occurred in 1999 after Hurricane Lenny when, as a member of a response team of volunteers, I conducted damage and needs assessments of affected households.  I was witness to the destructive force of the hurricane and the psychological impact on its victims.

                                                           
What are your hopes for the future of Red Cross?    
I am presently working in the field of mental health and have a keen and growing interest in Disaster Psychology.  My hope is to further develop the Psychological Support Program (PSP) of my National Society.
