Meet Caitlin Reid

Caitlin Reid, a Michigan native with a passion for both arts and sciences, began her journey in Theater Production at Oakland University, including a study abroad experience in Mexico. She later earned a B.S. in Program in the Environment from the University of Michigan, where she developed a multidisciplinary understanding of physical science, social science, and policy.

​

From 2010 to 2021, Caitlin lived in New York City, gaining diverse experiences in restaurant management, environmental research, and immigration law before earning her M.A. in Climate & Society at Columbia University. She helped launch a NASA DEVELOP hub at Columbia’s International Research Institute in Climate and Society facility, where her Videomaking Best Practices Guide raised video standards program-wide. She later joined Risk Management Solutions (now part of Moody’s Analytics), where she specialized in catastrophe risk modeling, developing trainings and custom learning resources, and global product marketing.

​

In 2023, after attending Motion Picture Institute and earning her Certification in Film Production, Caitlin founded Huvi Productions, LLC, a video production company, and Huvi Learn, an educational initiative focused on making filmmaking accessible to neurodivergent self-learners. She offers introductory film and video workshops, is developing activity books for neurodivergent creatives, and provides individual and group tutoring for K-12 students and adults—helping learners improve study skills, navigate ADHD/AuDHD, and build confidence in their education.

​

Passionate about neurodivergence awareness, Caitlin blends her lived experience with professional insight to help others understand their unique learning styles and creative potential. She also works as a Circulation Clerk at her local library, where she enjoys connecting with her community and exploring the wide variety of materials that come through each day. In addition, Caitlin serves as a Instructional Design & Quality Assurance Specialist in the online learning department at Washtenaw Community College, where she helps ensure that digital courses meet high standards of accessibility, clarity, and learner engagement.

​

Caitlin continues to support independent film projects across Southeast and Mid-Michigan as a freelance videographer and camera operator. Outside of work, she enjoys dark comedies, takes nature walks with and without her camera, and spends time with her Maine Coon mix cat, Leela-Rose.
