amya started Lantern Academy to cultivate a joy of learning in middle and high school students.
nna’s Travel Adventures is a local full-service travel agency specializing in family and luxury travel. Founder, Anna Teglasi; has had a passion for travel her whole life, she’s been lucky to travel to over 70 countries and follows this passion by helping her clients plan their dream vacations.
Current educational trends focused on grades instead of foundational learning produces an unjustified fear of math. Lantern Academy believes that the solution lies in challenging students’ minds and encouraging their curiosity in a fun and engaging environment. Ramya has a bachelor’s degree in Chemistry and an MBA from UBC. She feels that the numbers of women pursuing STEM careers is low and is keen to encourage girls to enjoy subjects like math and science. Lantern Academy is introducing their first all-girls coding class, in the hopes that more young women will take a step forward into this exciting field.
“I love nothing more than seeing my client’s photos of their kids splashing in the water from their private yacht charter in the Caribbean.”

r. Melody Sun, with the help of her warm, like-minded team, founded Sun Dental Centre as a place where oral health care could take place, with community, relationships, education, and integrity in mind. We are a place where relationships matter. A place where we can help patients smile with renewed dental health and increased self-confidence. A place where complete patient satisfaction is our goal.
Dr. Tracie Tanaka joined the Sun Dental Centre team in June 2018. Dr. Tanaka was born and raised in Vancouver, B.C. She attended the University of British Columbia where she completed her undergraduate degree in Medical Laboratory Sciences, followed by a degree in Dental Medicine (DMD). Dr. Tanaka strives to support patients by having honest and straightforward discussions regarding treatment options. She believes in the importance of providing all the necessary information to allow patients to make informed decisions regarding their dental health. Her goal is to provide dentistry in a comfortable, compassionate, and gentle setting. When not practising dentistry, you can find Dr. Tanaka baking or cooking in the kitchen, tending to her backyard vegetable garden, or spending time with her family outdoors. Dr. Tanaka is also an avid traveller and is always looking for recommendations on where to travel next! Dr. Tanaka is excited to be joining the team at Sun Dental Centre and is looking forward to getting to know you and your family!
