Katie Barnes, AIA

Principal, COO

As the daughter of an architect, Katie came early to understanding what it takes to be a good one. Excellent design instincts, innovative management systems and gifted people skills are part of her DNA. As our newest principal, she divides her time among marketing, project management and the development of project management systems. Katie has played a key role in the firm’s recreation practice and is also involved in a variety of other public building types. There is nothing she cannot do once she puts her mind to it. Whether it’s running projects or running marathons, she is always at the top of her game.
