It's not just quotes on the wall," said Park."We are committed to women owning and risking and leading in every aspect of life." "I love the creative freedom that I have," said Jacq Safer, Title Nine senior product photo stylist."I very much feel like my voice is heard a lot more here."The company recently made headlines for donating $1 million to the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team in its fight for equal pay.
