Brooke was first introduced to Family Matters as an intern in 2013. After graduating college with a B.A. in Global Studies, she returned to assist with the Evening Tutoring program. Since then, her roles have evolved into an Evening Tutoring coordinator, volunteer tutor-mentor, assistant staff member to Family Connections, and now Director of Partners in Learning. Brooke deeply values the honor of knowing the families, volunteers, and youth members as she seeks the beauty of their gifts and stories. Brooke also enjoys writing, travelling, and synthesizing the two when possible.
