About

 

Hello, my name is Rachel Clark.

I was born and raised in Denver, CO and am currently living in Lafayette, CO. I am a freelance journalist, herbalist, rock climber, sweater knitter, tarot reader, traveler and plant lover. 

The nature of Journalism allows me to work wherever there is WiFi, though I'd much rather be off the grid, far away from the noise of the city.

Feel free to contact me with any news tips you may have. Words of encouragement are always welcome!
