Harry Yoon, editor of "Minari", worked his way from the bottom after a career change to get to where he is now. He most recently edited the film "Minari" directed by Lee Isaac Chung and starring Steven Yeun and is an editor on the upcoming Marvel movie "Shang-Chi and the Legend of Ten Rings" slated to be released summer of 2021. Harry’s story is inspiring and he had us reflect on how we find our meaning in life.

Eric Becerra is currently pursuing an Ed.L.d at Harvard University. He tells of his childhood growing up in a Mexican migrant farmer family, and how every year, he has had to move with his family for seasonal work. As an English as a second language learner, he mentions lapses in his education. His story has inspired us to look at our diverse backgrounds and struggles not as factors that paralyze us but what gives us strength.

Welcome to our first BtR Team Podcast. Every end-of-the-month, we will be doing a Founders’ Podcast with Christina, Kimberly, and Hana. We will focus on a topic and share what we learned from the interviews we conducted that month. In this podcast, we will be introducing ourselves and sharing a bit about our own childhoods, since we ask this personal question of our interviewees. We will also be talking about why we are working on BtR and what inspired us to start this.

Kristyn Leach is a Korean-American farmer in California. But you’ll learn, she’s more than a farmer. We learned about Kristyn when we watched the PBS short-film documentary called The Seed Saver. We were so inspired by her story as a pioneer in seed saving and her journey as an entrepreneur, we reached out to her for this interview. She runs the Namu Farm in Winters, California with a partnership with a restaurant group called Namu Restaurant Group. What we admired about Kristyn is that she had a dream as a child and she made it happen. She’s here to tell us the story behind her resume.
