Woodbury School of Architecture congratulates Jesse Santiago (B.Arch ’14) on his recent appointment as the 2022 AIA San Fernando Valley President. Jesse has a background in landscape architecture, construction management, multi-family, and hospitality. He is currently an Associate at Jerry Sherman Architect in Tarzana, CA, where he has worked for the last seven years. In an Alumni Spotlight WSoA did with Jesse and his partner, Susanna Santiago (B.Arch ’14) a few years back, the pair said, “We both strongly believe a designer’s responsibility is to be actively involved in planting solutions to resolve social issues, and not lose sight of our ability to bring value to our communities.” Congrats Jesse!
