“My grandpa didn’t care about artificial things. As long as he had his farm and his radio, he was happy. He’s the reason I fell in love with nature, and he always pushed me to pursue my dream of being a photographer. I first started taking pictures at his farm. Now, I take photos of my friends and my dog Zeke. My dream is to travel the world taking pictures of wildlife in nature. Hopefully, one day working for National Geographic.” – Rachel Jones, class of 2021
