Favourite Quote / Advice to live by:  "Turn the beat around!” It reminds me that you can't control things that happen to you, but you can control how you deal with it and how you let it affect you. You can make a choice to change your attitude and keep on the sunny side of life.

Born and raised in Kamloops, B.C., Brooke has always loved sports, being active and the outdoors, which she enjoys with her husband and Bernese Mountain Dog, Banjo. From hiking, golfing, wake surfing and gardening in the summer, to skiing in the winter, to riding her horse year-round, she truly enjoys all the terrain and beauty the Interior offers.
