My name is Brooke and I am a freelance writer, blogger, YouTuber, radio personal, and entrepreneur from Philadelphia. Since getting published over a year ago I have had many opportunities to collaborate with different bloggers, do cross-promotion with various social media companies, and start my second blog. Other than that I’m just a regular old down-to-earth Philly girl trying to make my dreams come true.
