Jessica Young, RA, joined Heintges in 2005, and has extensive experience managing academic, healthcare, and cultural projects with a focus on unifying building envelope performance with the Architect’s aesthetic vision.

As a Principal at Heintges, Jess develops office educational resources, provides training and mentorship for junior staff, and fosters peer collaboration through the firm’s internal R&D program. In addition to working on the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago, Jess has collaborated on complex, high-profile facades across the U.S. including the Corning Museum of Glass – North Wing Expansion, the new Disney Headquarters in Hudson Square New York, and the recently opened Paulson Center at NYU. A registered architect in Massachusetts and New York, Jess holds a Master of Architecture degree from Columbia University’s GSAPP.
