I’m Brooke!

I started writing while studying abroad in South Africa.

A decade later, travel is still what inspires me the most.

I love painting, drawing, sewing, crocheting, sculpting, photography, and more. Anything where I can use my hands to create something.

Some of my simple pleasures include coffee, the outdoors, time with my puppy and husband, and breakfast foods.

I love walking around new cities. Here are some recent wanderings in Japan!

While it was not my first career plan, teaching has become my long-term passion. It fills me with joy to watch kids discover the magic of storytelling

Storytelling is the through line of (my) life.
