Rachel Cook (born January 8, 1995), is an American model, businesswoman and internet celebrity. Cook has been a rising star in the modelling world, working with such renowned photographers as Chris Applebaum, Adam Mont and Robert Voltaire, the last of which photographed her for the November 2018 issue of Playboy Mexico. In 2019, Cook launched her first digital magazine WTVR, which was followed by Nirvana in 2020.

Early life
Growing up south of Seattle, Cook had ambitions to become a teacher. At age 13, while visiting a local mall with her mother and grandmother, Cook was scouted by a modelling agent. Intrigued by the idea, she was able to convince her parents into letting her try it out. After she turned 14 she got some test photos done and was signed by Elite Models in New York. She did more test shoots and was finally sent to Tokyo for her first paid job, accompanied by either her mother or grandmother while there. When she returned she was able to keep booking jobs in New York (New York Models) and Los Angeles, as well as Seattle, which was close to home.

At age 16 she got the opportunity to return to Tokyo on her own, so she had to enroll in online classes for high school. While she was there, the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami stuck, leading her to return to Washington out of an abundance of caution. After six weeks passed, she returned to Tokyo to complete her contract. Her online courses however, did not get completed.

When she came back home she enrolled back into public school and caught up on the credits she needed. Cook wasn't enjoying her time in high school, so when she became busier booking jobs around Seattle, she decided to get her GED halfway through her junior year in order to devote more time to modelling. The next few years saw Cook continuing to book work around Seattle and Los Angeles, often driving back and forth, and would fly to New York and occasionally overseas. At age 18 Cook got breast implants.

Around age 20, Cook decided to quit modelling after a bad experience working in New York and being unable to earn enough income to justify living there. She moved back to Washington and got a job as a hostess at a restaurant. That job lasted two weeks before she decided to quit and go visit her grandmother in Hawaii and build up her book. She presented her expanded portfolio to LA Models, whom she'd been with before, and they agreed to sign her. She decided to move full-time to Los Angeles and ended up becoming roommates with fellow model Meghan Wiggins, whom she had met years earlier while the two had lived at the model apartment.

Career
2016 During Cook's first year in Los Angeles she was able to book multiple jobs which gave her more content to post on her social media accounts, taking her Instagram followers from 170K at the beginning of the year to over one million by February of the following year. One of Cook's most recognizable shoots was in the Amalfi Coast with photographer Robert Voltaire for Treats Magazine that came out in January, beginning the first of many projects with Voltaire. She also shot with Adam Mont in June and returned to Italy's Lake Como with Voltaire for another Treats spread in August. Her exposure was growing so much that through requests on her social media she was able to finish first in the fan voting for which models would be featured in the upcoming Nu Muses calendar, shot by David Bellemere. In October, after being encouraged by fellow popular LA based Youtubers Mark Dohner and George Janko, Cook started up her Youtube channel, featuring Q&As, VLOGs, BTS, dieting, etc. In November she travelled to Costa Rica to shoot for??

2017 At the beginning of the year Cook went to Mexico with her roommate Meghan. She found herself in a transitional moment of her life. She had made the decision to give up her apartment in LA and move to New York with Wiggins. Before doing so she planned to go to Australia to recharge and shoot some content for her social media accounts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSi2Br8bQn4

again not enjoying certain aspects of the model life, so she decided to give up her apartment in Los Angeles and moved back to Washington. In February she decided to take a trip to New Zealand, and while there was offered some modelling work in Australia. She toured around New Zealand while waiting for her work visa to come through, and then went and did jobs around Australia and Thailand.
