Aimee Mullins: The Interview on Role Models
It's hard to imagine anyone with a resume as diverse as that of Aimee Mullins.
Here's a sampling: Georgetown University track star, Pentagon employee, actress, model, motivational speaker. It's the resume of someone who's incredibly accomplished.
But the resume doesn't tell the whole story. You see, Aimee Mullins is also a trailblazer who has broken down major barriers for amputees.
On this episode of Role Models, Aimee talks about what it was like to be one of the first amputees to be an NCAA Division I athlete, how important it is to develop and explore a wide range of interests, blending in when she was in high school and on the track, and how she can adjust her height up to 6'1".
