Since 2009, Jason Wilke, Owner of Studio W has been the Treasurer of the Oklahoma Chapter of ASLA. As he moves into the role as President-Elect in 2017, Studio W's Associate/Production Manager, Ryan Grider will take over as Treasurer at OKASLA.
The mission of the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) is to lead, to educate and participate in the careful stewardship, wise planning and artful design of our cultural and natural environments.
ASLA seeks to improve the public understanding of the profession and advance the practice of Landscape Architecture.
"Our team here at Studio W takes an active role not only in the professional design community, but in the civic community as well," said Jason Wilke, Owner of Studio W.
"We know how important it is to stay involved not only with the leaders in our community, but with the local universities educating and speaking to college students about Landscape Architecture and Design and the impact it has on our environment."
Wilke, a graduate of Oklahoma State University, feels it is crucial to stay connected to your roots. His goal is to grow Studio W into a nationally known design firm and travel around the country educating others on his passion to preserve and restore the environment and natural habitat.
"We love when we educate a class of college students and when they graduate, they come to work for us. You either love what we do, or you don't really understand our passion. We like to think anyone taking landscape architecture courses has the same passion we do."
Studio W is a professional design and architecture firm offering creative solutions to commercial and residential clients.
