OBERLIN, OH and CHESTERTOWN, NY -- Jan Ligas, estimator at Wilkstone in Paterson, NJ, was the 2016 recipient of the MIA+BSI Natural Stone Scholarship. Ligas was recognized for this award at the MIA+BSI Awards luncheon at TISE (The International Surface Event).
Ligas joined the staff at Wilkstone in 2014 and was fascinated by the industry almost immediately. “I discovered that there was an entire industry behind the marble and granite people used in their home and office décor,” he said. “I rapidly began to see the potential and creativity in the industry, and I was determined to be a part of this world.”
