Cancer Survivor, Crystal Bennett wins Student of the Year from The Academy of Home Staging and Design

NEW YORK (PRWEB) September 12, 2018

It’s usually difficult picking the best of the best from our students, but Crystal Bennett made it very easy. Crystal’s courage, talent and strength is so inspiring, there was no other choice. Crystal Bennett is The Academy of Home Staging and Design’s Student of the Year for 2018.

Crystal and her husband were facing financial hardships when they were both laid off. Her husband had taken a class on flipping houses and it was starting to gain momentum.

Then Crystal was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Fighting through cancer, facing surgery and treatment can be overwhelming, add to that the strain of trying to find a new job, starting a new business and financial insecurity, this would be enough to stop most people in their tracks.

Not Crystal, she decided to reinvent herself and join her husband in making flipping houses a family business. She went online and started looking for courses in interior design and home staging and found The Academy of Home Staging and Design.

What Crystal learned at AHSD took her to a different level. “All the real-life examples from Wanda (Wanda Colon, Founder and Instructor) and George (George Cambron, Interior Designer at Style My Space and Instructor at AHSD) and the forms and contracts I could use right away-they made the Academy something special.”

Crystal was right her training was something special, just like Crystal herself, and we weren’t the only ones who thought so, so did HGTV. HGTV’s program House Hunters films clients as they find a new home to move into. The HGTV realtor found the home Crystal and Nate had just designed and wanted to feature it on the show. “I had come back from AHSD’s Interior Design program with a heightened sense of design and was much better attuned to what clients want. But still, it was a total shock.”

In addition to her HGTV premier, Crystal and Nate have flipped two properties, one at a $60K profit, and a third project is under way. Is Crystal tempted to go back to the security of corporate work? Sure, but she can feel that everyone at AHSD genuinely wanted her to succeed, and that keeps her moving ahead. “I love doing this work. And I am still committed to ‘good’ just isn’t good enough.”

The Academy of Home Staging and Design taught Crystal the principals of staging and the business of staging, but she showed us how courage looks in the face of adversity and how to overcome situations that seem insurmountable.

We can’t wait to see what Crystal does next.

It's been 17 year since the 9/11 attacks but for millions of Americans, the dreadful memories of that horrifying day are still fresh.  Eric Ortner, a 9/11 survivor, took to social networking site Twitter to share his ordeal. Interestingly, Ortner was one of the first responders who worked round the clock to save as many lives as he could without taking a break for food or sleep. 

In a Twitter thread, Eric describes the how a phone call saved his life. Thousands of people from all around the world appreciated Eric's honest confession and supported him. His Twitter thread has recieved more than 2700 retweets. 

"I am embarrassed to say as a 9/11 first responder that I’ve never returned to ground zero. I doubt I ever will be able to bring myself back there. I was an AEMT in NY. I slept through the 1st phone call to come help at a “plane crash”. The first tower fell on Zack Zeng my trainee", wrote Ortner.

The minutes I lost missing that call saved my life. When I arrived we worked through the day and night, side by side with strangers who we just somehow blindly trusted each other with our lives. We didn’t care where someone was from, their race, gender, or economic status,

— Eric Ortner (@eortner) September 11, 2018





who they loved, or their political affiliation. We ran to help because, that’s what Americans do, what NYers do, & more universally true, what good human beings do. There were times there that i thought I wouldn’t make it home. That I was a goner.

— Eric Ortner (@eortner) September 11, 2018





But then I’d feel the turnout coat and boot of another responder, then their arm & torso, and id feel someone grabbing my hips, lifting me up out of a hole. In a burning pit of hell during one of the worst chapters in our history, I wound up seeing the best in humanity.

— Eric Ortner (@eortner) September 11, 2018





That day showed me who we all really are, more good people than evil. More of us who want to help than those who want to hurt. Leaving those memories from ground zero behind wasn’t easy. PTS after posed as big a threat to me & many others as being in the pile.

— Eric Ortner (@eortner) September 11, 2018





sometimes flashbacks can slip my dreams into nightmares, and I have a weird rash. but I got off easy compared to the thousands of first responders who are suffering with cancers, falling between coverage gaps, and fighting to stay alive.

— Eric Ortner (@eortner) September 11, 2018





It’s not a story that you’ll hear about in the news often enough. We lose heroes to 9/11 illnesses nearly weekly & we can’t let them die in silence without a voice & the care & benefits they deserve. Which is why rather than think about politics today or assign false praise,

— Eric Ortner (@eortner) September 11, 2018





today @realDonaldTrump @RudyGiuliani we need to focus on the heroes who are going to die unless we help them. @brianstelter the media needs to cover these illnesses & Please all of us, donate to https://t.co/IGLLzq2Xqz

Earlier, US President  Donald Trump on Tuesday praised the men and women of United Flight 93 for saving countless lives when they struggled with hijackers on Sept. 11, 2001, and called the field where the plane went down a monument to "American defiance."

Commemorating the 17th anniversary of the attacks that destroyed the World Trade Center in New York and struck the Pentagon outside Washington, Trump said the nation shared the grief of the family members whose loved ones were lost that day.

"We grieve together for every mother and father, sister and brother, son and daughter, who was stolen from us at the Twin Towers, the Pentagon and here in this Pennsylvania field," Trump said.

Commemorations also took place in New York and Washington to mark the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks by al Qaeda, in which nearly 3,000 people were killed.

Flight 93 was heading to San Francisco from Newark, New Jersey, when passengers stormed the plane's cockpit and sought to take control from the hijackers. All were killed when the plane crashed in a field, preventing what was thought to be another planned target in Washington.

Family members of Flight 93, some of their voices breaking, read aloud the names of the 40 passengers and crew members who died. Memorial bells tolled.

Trump and his wife, Melania travelled to the Flight 93 National Memorial from Washington and paused for a moment of reflection while overlooking the field where the plane crashed.

"They boarded the plane as strangers and they entered eternity linked forever as true heroes," Trump said of the passengers and crew.

"This field is now a monument to American defiance. This memorial is now a message to the world: America will never, ever submit to tyranny."

In New York, the Bell of Hope rang out at St. Paul's Chapel to mark the moment at 8:46 a.m. when the first of two hijacked planes hit the World Trade Center. The bell has been rung on every anniversary since 2002, when it was presented to New York by the City of London to honour those who died.

Mourners gathered at the National September 11 Memorial plaza in Manhattan for the annual reading of victims' names.
