Who we are

The Strategic Advisory Council Steering Committee serves AIA Seattle’s Profession vision. The committee is comprised of established leaders in architecture and affiliated disciplines and former AIA Seattle board presidents, and brings valuable industry relationships, insights and expertise to enhance AIA Seattle’s service to its members and mission.

What we do

Strategic Advisory Council members attend a monthly meeting to actively serve as an intellectual resource to AIA Seattle and participate in direction-setting for the organization.

  • align activities with the goals and resources identified in the Strategic Plan
  • provide stronger dialogue and engagement within the AEC community
  • leverage the expertise of our CAPs and other allied professionals
  • promote educational excellence

How to get involved
