Hi, I’m Brooke.

In a few words, I’m a graphic designer, a sometimes photographer, a lover of good food, music, and books, and a hobby collector.

I’ve moved up and down the East Coast and landed in what feels like my forever home in Brooklyn, NY. Sometime in my early years, I realized that pretty much all I wanted to do was draw, sing, and bake—that really hasn’t changed much. What was cultivated in a small home in central Virginia has grown with each move and change of season.

Now, I mostly spend my time designing or baking with a good show or good music playing in the background. Something about being locked in my home, alone, for most of 2020 reignited my love for cooking so you can usually find me in my kitchen after hours testing out a new recipe with my expert taste-tester husband.

Currently

Listening Now

Thanks to Libby, I've been listening to classics like Pride and Prejudice. You can also find me weekly tuning in to Giggly Squad or more recently Slow Italian, Fast Learning. Blaring the Wicked soundtrack, sobbing to Les Mis, or screaming Taylor Swift songs is my current music rotation.

Exploring the City

We recently moved to a new neighborhood in Brooklyn and I'm looking forward to running through new Brownstone lined streets and joining the community garden on our block. On weekends you can probably find us trying a new restaurant or bakery, or returning to our neighborhood staples, Otway bakery or Patti Ann's.

Cooking Something New

Nothing makes me happier than trying a new recipe and everyone LOVING it.

My new recipe obsessions are Cloudy Kitchen (I just made this loaf cake and it was insane) and my new cookbook Umma, so you can find me experimenting with more Korean food in the kitchen.
