My name is Rachel Liz Clark and I'm a born and raised Montana cowgirl. I own a western lifestyle online clothing brand called WolfCreekCowgirlCo. that represents the Rocky Mountain cowgirl and her rebel spirit. I grew up hunting, fishing, riding horses, rodeoing, skiing, and went to school for agriculture. I graduated in 2020 from Montana State University with a degree in Livestock Management and proceeded to work in the ag industry for 2 years before living on the road with my husband. I now run my western brand full time out of a fifth wheel trailer and love every minute of it!
