I used to wish I didn’t feel things so deeply, but I’ve come to see it as my greatest gift.
My name is Brooke. I was born and raised in Connecticut, USA, and I’m based in Berlin. To advertising I bring a novelist’s stamina, a copywriter’s clip, and a poet’s heart.
Whatever I do, I go deep.
Watching a good ad has always made me cry.
Sometimes writing one does, too.
