Brooke comes from a family of artists, so it is no surprise that she has had a life-long fascination with the creative arts and delights in helping her students connect with their inner Michelangelo. Her advanced study of art and her years as a working multi-media artist have given Brooke a solid foundation to build her students' capabilities as creators. In projects ranging from painting to sewing and sculpture, the curiosity and enthusiasm of her Wakefield School students continue to inspire Brooke the most. In her free time, Brooke enjoys spending time with her family, sharing home-cooked meals, trying to keep up with her Border Collie, and restoring her historic farm property with her husband.
