From the moment we started working at rewardStyle From the moment we started working at rewardStyle together, I knew @rachael.loerwald was a visionary. I've dreamed about hiring her to design something for me ever since she launched her business, @studio.foray.

When I decided to start the Dallas Asian American Historical Society with @digital.denise, I knew Rachael would help make sense of all the scattered ideas in my head and turn it into a cohesive brand. 

How do you make an organization about *history* feel modern? Honor tradition, but appeal to new audiences? Make research chic? 

To say she accomplished this would be an understatement. She went beyond the call of duty (and friendship) to create something that brought me to tears. 

It feels so real now. Possible. A legacy. Something beautiful, timeless, and authentic. What our community has always deserved. 

We're ready to tell our stories. Follow us at @dallasasianhistory.
Sharing this update is bittersweet ❤️ I've res Sharing this update is bittersweet ❤️ I've resigned from my position as @DallasTRHT's communications director, which was one of the most difficult career (life) decisions I've ever made. But... I'm SO excited to see what transformative ideas the next person in this role brings! And hopefully have a chance to work alongside them before my last day on April 29th. Please help us find someone dedicated to changing the narrative and making Dallas a radically-inclusive city: dallastrht.org/careers #howweheal #dallastrht
