Brooke is a registered nurse with a unique foundation in both nursing (BSN, Midwestern State University) and social welfare (BA, University of California at Berkeley). This dual background shapes her holistic approach to patient care, recognizing that a multitude of factors – social, emotional and physical – influence an individual's health and well-being. She is dedicated to empowering patients to achieve their optimal state of health.

Brooke's diverse nursing experience spans medical-surgical, hospice, oncology, geriatrics and case management. This breadth of knowledge strengthens her ability to act as a passionate patient advocate, believing strongly that informed patients and families are best equipped to understand their condition, advocate for themselves, and actively participate in their healthcare journey.

In her personal life, Brooke enjoys reading, watching movies, theater, dancing, and traveling to see her daughter in Puerto Rico.  She resides in Fishers with her husband, son and Shih Tzu.
