Meet Brooke

**MEET BROOKE!**

Brooke serves as our Visual Merchandise Manager and Personal Stylist at the store. She also models, helps with social media, helps with buying, helps with inventory and receiving, and encourages the team!

I am a Christ follower. 

I'm a Tuscaloosa native – I attended TCHS and UA.

I've been married to my best friend/love of my life for 15 years (fun fact: we've been together for half of my life – we met when I was 20). 

I'm the proudest mom ever of my 11-year-old son, Christian (the cutest, sweetest, smartest, funniest kid ever).

Family is EVERYTHING to me.

I got diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, rheumatoid arthritis when I was 24 and have been living with ever since. Fun fact: I was told I would be debilitated by the time I was 35. I'm 40 now and still no debilitation – praise Jesus!

I was a trained ballerina from the time I was 3 until I was 19.

I am also a trained makeup artist.

I LOVE to cook. My kitchen is my happy place. My favorite thing to make is anything Italian. Fun fact: My husband proposed on a gondola in Venice, Italy!

I had the joy of being a stay at home mom for 10 years. When I discovered Ivy House and met Morgan, I had no idea how much it would mean to me. Working at Ivy House has given me such a new sense of purpose and has been the perfect fit for my skill set.  After not working for so long, I had no idea what I was even good at anymore, and now I know. I love all things creative and visual. Anything I see, that is felt in my heart, is how I can contribute. Having the opportunity to be creative, help ladies feel beautiful and confident, and work with amazing people is a gift.
