"I’ve always been inspired by the creations of God, and to this day I always know I can turn to nature to rediscover my love for creating. I truly love using cameras to create art that inspires other people."

"Being an artist is all about being excited about lots of little things. I feel like my truest artist self when I see beauty in a piece of trash on the street or witness a funny interaction at the gas station- most of all it Is about being an active observer."

"When I was a freshman in High School, I knew exactly what I wanted to study and how long it would take me to graduate. Well, to my surprise, God had different plans for me. I didn’t get into the major I wanted, and after getting rejected time and time again, I finally declared a degree in Music Education. Realizing that that degree also wasn’t for me, I created my own: the Bachelor of Arts with an emphasis in Contemporary Voice Performance. It is now an official major that anyone can apply to, and I am very proud of that."

“I think being a BYU student has helped give me some clarity on what I actually want to do in my life. It’s been a blessing because I’ve taken so many different classes, that I’ve been able to see trends and things that I enjoy and help develop myself as a person.”

From traveling to Scotland to teaching high schoolers, her education has truly followed the BYU motto “The world is our campus.”

Rachel Allen Everett

April 29, 2021 01:10 PM
Rachel Allen Everett recently graduated with a BFA in illustration. As a child, Everett struggled with reading. Her strong visual leanings kept her away from books until she found collections of graphic novels on the bookshelves of her junior high classroom. Clive Barker’s ‘The Thief of Always,’ and Jeff Smith’s ‘Bone’ became cherished literature.
