ASLA’s Women in Landscape Architecture Professional Practice Network (WILA PPN) is sharing the next set of profiles of women in the profession (see last week’s right here). If you’d like to be featured, the PPN’s call for submissions will remain open, with profiles being shared on an ongoing basis.
These profiles will appear on the PPN’s LinkedIn group, Facebook group, and here on The Field. This post includes Dana Hernalsteen, ASLA, Lucila Silva-Santisteban, ASLA, and Martha Fajardo.

What inspired you to pursue a career in landscape architecture?
My parents did! My mother went to art school and was VP of Marketing for a credit union while my father worked in HVAC and was an avid outdoorsman. He was always bringing home blueprints and getting me out into nature.
