009: Caitlyn Hoffmann: Why You Should Join AIGA

Have you ever wondered how to meet like-minded designers? Have you heard of AIGA? In this episode, we meet Caitlyn Hoffmann, a graphic designer from Appleton, Wisconsin. She has earned her design degree from the University of Wisconsin-Stout in 2018 and loves building identity systems to help small businesses reach their true potential.

Caitlyn also loves listening to podcasts and is an avid listener to Design Atlas, which is why we are so grateful to her for taking the time to speak with us. Both Megan and Jens are great friends with Caitlyn, as they all studied at the University of Wisconsin-Stout together.

Caitlyn has also been an avid AIGA leader. AIGA is the internationally known American Institute of Graphic Arts. She participated as president of the local University of Wisconsin-Stout chapter where she organised design events from speakers to design-focused field trips. In this episode, we’ll hear Caitlyn’s story and learn where she gathers her creative inspiration, and how AIGA has positively shaped her life as a designer.
