Disaster management grad ready to help thanks to JIBC
Growing up in Santiago, Chile, Rodrigo Miyake knew he wanted to help people for a living.
He dreamed of being an army helicopter pilot to save people by evacuating them from dangerous situations. But he was uncomfortable with the combat aspect of an army career.
Instead, he became a volunteer firefighter and that inspired him to pursue a career in the field of emergency management which eventually led him to the Justice Institute of British Columbia (JIBC).
