A professionally trained dancer, published author and accomplished thespian, this five-foot-two, eyes-of-blue firecracker settled in Los Angeles after earning a degree in English literature at Yale. Of Italian, Irish and Portuguese descent, Brooke has an exotic look that earns daily comparisons to fresh-faced "Noxema girl" Rebecca Gayheart, comedy goddess Debra Messing, and pre-Raphaelite beauty Helena Bonham Carter. Her bright-eyed, animated demeanor has undercurrents of darkness and mystery – a quality that consistently lands her roles as the angelic girl gone bad, and the pretty, popular girl you hate to love and love to hate.
Brooke has appeared on NBC's critically-acclaimed drama American Dreams and Disney's hit series That's So Raven. An East Coast native on the edgier side of sweet, Brooke thinks L.A. is funny. As it turns out, L.A. thinks Brooke is funny. She worked with Martin Lawrence, Mike Epps, James Earl Jones and an incredible ensemble cast in the Universal Pictures' comedy Welcome Home, Roscoe Jenkins. She sang, danced, and made us laugh in MTV's The American Mall. And most recently, she worked with Debra Messing in The Starter Wife, airing on the USA Network this fall.
