Vancouver Mom: Bianca Bujan

This week’s Vancouver Mom is Bianca Bujan, mom of three (+ one dalmatian) who loves to spend time outdoors with her family on Vancouver’s North Shore, which she calls home. By day she is the Queen (okay, Principal) of Bee Communications where she creates buzz for small businesses through content creation, content marketing, social media strategy, and brand development. Bianca is also a published writer and an influential blogger who shares advice, quotes and anecdotes from a career mom and adoptee through her personal blog, Bits of Bee.
