Business In 1893, she changed careers, and became engaged as Secretary in several important corporations. Among them are three —the Greene Consolidated Copper Company, the San Luis Mining Company, and the George A. Treadwell Mining Company— whose successes were largely due to her work.

At this time, this was believed to be a record for accuracy unsurpassed by anyone in a similar position. Her work in connection with these corporations brought her into business relations with eminent financiers, whose implicit confidence she retained.
