Kristen Butts’ ability to address design challenges with innovative solutions drives the success of many of Altieri’s complex higher education and museum projects.
Kristen joined Altieri in 2006 upon completing her studies in mechanical and architectural engineering. She is an exceptionally talented engineer and project manager who emphasizes partnership, open communication, and a shared goal of achieving the architect’s vision. Kristen’s design work and project management responsibilities for the Corning Museum of Glass project are a perfect example of her collaborative approach. The Corning Museum program also presented considerable design constraints in its mandate to create museum conditions in a space with significant limitations. Kristen’s ability to address the design challenges was key to the success of the award-winning project.
Since 2019, Kristen has taught a course on systems integration at Yale University’s Graduate School of Architecture.
