A long-time contributor to this
magazine, Vancouver journalist
Dee Hon loves to travel and
learn about world events. This
issue marks his eighth annual
education guide for BCBusiness
("It's in the Details," p.40), but
he continues to be inspired by
the people he interviews. "I'm
always lucky to talk to brilliant
people building new and excit-
ing projects," he says, "and I was
humbled to hear about
BCIT's
micro-credential program to
train nurses to help survivors of
sexual assault."
Mark Gibbon hasn't put his
camera down since he took
a trip to Malawi over 10 years
ago. The Vancouver-based
photographer, who graduated
from Langara College five years
ago, now works as an instructor
for the same continuing studies
photography program that he
attended. He typically shoots
food—including a BCBusiness
story on hazelnuts in 2019—but
says he channelled his love for
"photographing people and
places to help tell a story" for our
30 Under 30 feature (p.18).
