“AT SMFA, I DELVED INTO DIFFERENT PHYSICAL AND DIGITAL MEDIUMS. I DEVELOPED NEW MODES OF COMMUNICATING MY IDEAS THROUGH LENSES INCLUDING ART, CONTEMPORARY ART HISTORY, SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP, POLITICAL SCIENCE, AND ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES. ”
TRISHA HAUTÉA, BFA+MAT ’16 “I challenged myself to maximize my time collaborating with Boston’s academic institutions, and multifaceted learning approaches laid the groundwork for where I am now. My career in the creative and entertainment industry, STEM and the arts, and academia has spanned New York City and Los Angeles, where I have operated as an artist, educator, and advisor at various points. Through my consultancy, I help C-suite and executive leaders strategize and translate complex information into accessible and understandable content for broader audiences. As an artist and a Filipino woman of color at SMFA at Tufts, I developed artistic languages that speak about critical issues such as climate change, social justice impact, and environmental sustainability. This commitment is not just a part of my visual arts practice. It also echoes through workshops I offer as an educator and my work supporting senior leaders in refining their brand positioning and communications, or educating their stakeholders for corporate social responsibility and diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.”
