Rachel Keck is a wanderess and wordsmith currently roving the desert Southwest with a camera in hand. Her roots trace back to a small Virginia town where the mountains meet the river and her deep love for storytelling was conceived. Aside from impulsive road trips and ragtag dinner parties, Rachel has an affinity for uncovering hidden gems—wherever and within whomever they may reside. Rachel is also a contributing editor for Pilgrim Magazine and can be reached at rachel@pilgrimmag.com.
