About Marisa J. Young

I improve how projects are designed, communicated, and delivered from concept through execution.With a background in architectural design and construction project management, I bring a practical understanding of how work actually happens across teams. I’m known for bridging gaps between design and construction, aligning stakeholders, and bringing clarity to complex projects.My work focuses on improving workflows, implementing systems that drive operational efficiency, and helping teams deliver more coordinated, buildable results. I approach every project with a focus on what actually works in practice.I’ve also supported teams through teaching, training, and advisory work, translating real world experience into practical guidance others can apply. I’m passionate about advancing the role of women in construction and supporting stronger representation and leadership across the industry.I’m also a mom of two girls and a wife. Motherhood has shaped how I lead, prioritize, and show up every day, strengthening my resilience, perspective, and ability to navigate complexity.

   At reSAWN Timber Co, I work at the intersection of architecture, construction, and material performance, with a focus on exterior wall assemblies while supporting wood cladding and applications across both exterior and interior conditions.I partner with architects, builders, and project teams to translate design intent into practical, code compliant solutions, supporting better decision making around material selection, detailing, and installation.I lead architectural development and detailing of high performing assemblies, producing 2D and 3D drawings that improve constructability and real world application, with a strong focus on rainscreen design and detailing. I also contribute to new product development, author technical guidance, and develop internal tools that drive consistency, clarity, and operational efficiency across teams.My work spans both external project support and internal operations, helping reduce risk, avoid common failure points, and improve how wood applications and building envelope assemblies are designed and delivered.I play a key role in establishing reSAWN as a technical leader in wood cladding and exterior wall assemblies, advancing how these assemblies are understood, detailed, and successfully executed in practice.
