Corporate Counsel: What was it that motivated you initially to volunteer with EMT services?
William Min: I had been living in the community for a few years and there was an ad in the local paper that they were starting an EMT class. I thought it was important to give back and so I signed up to take the training class. For me, I think part of what’s important is for folks to be able to contribute back in a meaningful way. Volunteering not only provides personal satisfaction but I think it’s also a good example of how you can do things in your life to reach certain balances.
