Interview with Tristan Higgins.
I got to talk to Tris and blow her perception of herself. We expose how inappropriate the 80s were. I mention this classic video that you might want to check out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyNa-ReeZc8
Anyway, I think we were awesome and just ahead of the times!
Regardless, Tristan is an accomplished speaker, dj, attorney, and a long time friend and she's a joy to the world. If you have not listened to the RBG and Pam Martin episode first, you really should BEFORE listening to this one as we reference it a lot and is the foundation for this one.
Tristan E.H. Higgins is a highly trained and internationally recognized speaker on diversity and inclusion. She speaks with humor and sincerity, which allows her to reach audiences of any age, nationality, and profession. She founded Metaclusive LLC to help organizations shift their focus to belonging. “Metaclusive” means a sense of belonging that transcends diversity and inclusion where all are represented, valued, and accepted. Tristan has a Bachelor of Arts in Theater from the University of California, San Diego and went to California Western School of Law for her Juris Doctor. She began her career as a prosecutor for the San Diego City Attorney and went on to practice entertainment law for the Screen Actors Guild (SAG- AFTRA) in Los Angeles. After advising SAG-AFTRA in video game contract negotiations, she joined Sega of America in San Francisco, where she oversaw Sega’s legal needs for North America. She left Sega to join Sony Electronics in San Diego, where she helped establish the digital cinema business worldwide, and advised the component sales divisions in Silicon Valley, Novi, Tel Aviv, and Tokyo on high tech licensing and sales. Tristan lives with her wife, two kids, one dog, and three cats. In her pre-pandemic spare time, she served the community as a volunteer DJ for non-profit events and traveled the world as often as possible. Now, she is trying to make the world a better place from her home and hoping she doesn’t forget how to socialize.
