Caitlin considers herself a visual scientist because her past career as an experimental marine biologist continues to shape the way she works, while teaching her that design is truly ubiquitous. Caitlin will point attendees towards a few approaches that designers can use from experimental field biology and discuss how you can embrace other career experiences to level-up and be your whole-self as a designer.
