What I liked
I love the sacredness of saving lives. I've had parents thank me and children gain trust in me. Also, working their for four years has helped me gain a sense of belonging to the community.
What I wish was different
I wish more people my age worked there.
Advice
Never underestimate your skills. When I first started I was scared and felt unqualified. Now that I've worked their for a while, I realized that it takes confidence and practice to be good at anything.
