The contributions of Thomas Jefferson have been the subjects of thousands of books, college texts for the most part.

The question asks "How else".... The best approach here is to list them all in a bullet point style:

* Elected as a delegate to the 1st Continental Congress;

* Main author of the Declaration of Independence;

* Served as Governor of Virginia;

* Served as minister to France;

* Served as Secretary of State under President Washington;

* Served as US President for two terms;

* Negotiated Louisiana Purchase;

* In favor of the end to the import of slaves during his Presidential term;

* The treaty ending the war in Tripoli ( a 4 year war) ; and

* Founded the University of Virginia.
